# AhaSlides Presentations Dashboard: Create & Organise

> Navigate your presentation library, create new presentations, organise folders, use bulk actions, and search across all your content from one place.

The **Presentations** section is the main workspace in AhaSlides — the first thing you see after logging in. From here you can create, organise, and manage all your presentations.

In the left sidebar, click **Presentations** to expand it. You will see three views underneath:

| View                 | What it contains                                                                         |
| -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **My Presentations** | All presentations you own, including any folders you have created                        |
| **Shared with Me**   | Presentations and folders that other AhaSlides users have shared with you                |
| **Trash**            | Presentations you have moved to trash. Items here can be restored or permanently deleted |
