After you sign in, RPG Desk opens on **Home**. From here you reach everything through the navigation bar on the left.

## The navigation bar

From top to bottom:

| Button         | What it opens                                                                                                                                   |

| **Home**       | this screen                                                                                                                                     |
| **Rooms**      | Explore, to find and create rooms (see [Find a room and join](https://docs.rpgdesk.com/en/comecando/explorar/))                                 |
| **Desk Cloud** | your files stored in RPG Desk (see [Desk Cloud](https://docs.rpgdesk.com/en/comecando/arquivos/))                                               |
| *open rooms*   | one button for each room you are in, with the initials of its name (see [Windows and several rooms](https://docs.rpgdesk.com/en/mesa/janelas/)) |
| **Settings**   | your preferences (see [Your preferences](https://docs.rpgdesk.com/en/comecando/configuracoes/))                                                 |
| **Sign out**   | ends the session                                                                                                                                |

Hover over a button to see its name. A number on a room’s button shows what arrived while it was in the background. Friends and conversations are in the **Friends & chat** panel, in the bottom-right corner (see [Profile, friends and conversations](https://docs.rpgdesk.com/en/comecando/perfil-e-amigos/)).

## Home

- **At the top:** the search, which looks for rooms by name, system or game master and opens the results in Explore, and **Create room**.

- **Pick up where you left off:** the last room you joined, with its system, whether it has a password, when you were there and how many people are in it now (and whether the game master is). **Join the table** joins it (or **Back to the table**, if it is already open); **Invite players** copies the room link for you to send to your players.

- **Your tables:** three tabs, each with how many rooms it has. Your own rooms are only here, not in Explore:

  - **Recent**, where you have been (except the highlighted one);
  - **Mine**, the ones you created or where you are an assistant game master;
  - **Favorites**, the ones you kept from the card’s **⋮** menu.

  Click a card to join. If the room has a password, its overview opens first and asks for it. The **⋮** has like, favorite, the overview and copy link. With more than 11 rooms in a tab, **Show all** opens the rest. **See all rooms** opens Explore, and **Create a new table** opens room creation.

- **Looking for a new table?:** the systems used most in public rooms. Click one to open Explore on **All rooms**, with that system ticked; **Explore rooms** opens Explore.

Prefer to open Explore right away? In **Settings → General → When signing in, open**, choose **Rooms**.
