The Home Page

Curate a Notion-style landing page for your Space with rich text and live widgets.

Every Space opens to a Home page — a curated landing view, not a file list. Think of it as a Notion-style page: a rich text canvas where you write context and drop in live widgets that pull real data from the Space. The file explorer lives one tab over, under Browse.

The default template

A brand-new Space — or any Space whose home page hasn't been edited yet — shows a generated default template instead of a blank page:

  • An H1 with the Space's name
  • The Space description, if you set one
  • Pre-placed Recent documents and Members widgets

This means a Space always looks intentional from day one. The first edit an admin makes replaces the template with the saved page.

Editing the home page

Admins can edit the home page directly:

  • Text — Type into the heading and body just like any document. Edits save automatically about a second after you stop typing.
  • Widgets — Click + Add widget (shown only to admins, above the page) to insert any of the six widget types. Each new widget is followed by a blank paragraph so you can keep writing.

Home content saves automatically — there's no save button. Reload the page and your heading, body, and widgets are right where you left them.

Widgets

WidgetShows
Recent documentsThe Space's most recently updated documents
PinnedA hand-picked set of documents, in the order you choose
MembersThe people in the Space
ActivityRecent Space events (created, member added, role changed, …)
Quick linksLabelled links to anywhere — internal or external
Sub-pagesChild pages within the Space

Widgets render live data. Some have a Configure action for setup:

  • Pinned — Click Configure, check the documents you want, and they appear in reading order. If a pinned document is later archived elsewhere, it simply drops out of the widget.
  • Quick linksConfigure to add a label and URL. A bare hostname like example.com is normalized to https://; unsafe URLs are rejected. Links open in a new tab.

What members see

For editors and viewers, the home page is read-only: no + Add widget, no Configure buttons, no editing caret. They see exactly what the admin authored, and the widgets still show live data. In the Organization space, every org member can read the home page; only admins can edit it.

Activity

When an admin edits the home page, it's logged. The change shows up two places: the Space's Activity drawer ("updated the home page", with who and when) and the home page's own Activity widget if you've added one.

The home page never blank-crashes. If its stored content can't be read for any reason, the Space falls back to the generated default template.
