Thank you for your feedback.<p>&gt; The decision of what does and doesn&#x27;t go in the sidebar is very non-intuitive<p>We try to put top level navigation into sidebar and everything else in the main page. For example navigation to `Projects` is in sidebar however tabs to switch between starred projects or personal projects is in main body.<p>&gt; For example, in groups and user profiles you can find the list of projects in the main body of the page (and it&#x27;s not visible immediately). Why is it not in the sidebar if you have a sidebar?<p>Good example. Agree its still non-intuitive in some places. For you particular example we created an issue to fix - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitlab.com&#x2F;gitlab-org&#x2F;gitlab-ce&#x2F;issues&#x2F;13480" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitlab.com&#x2F;gitlab-org&#x2F;gitlab-ce&#x2F;issues&#x2F;13480</a>.<p>&gt; And then the ordering is also a bit weird -- I don&#x27;t think many people would consider the order in GitLab to be &quot;in order of importance&quot; or even &quot;regular use&quot;<p>Ordering of projects is either by last activity or alphabetically. But in any case there is usually a dropdown in UI to sort by other criteria.<p>&gt; And why can&#x27;t I see the set of files in the repo when I first open it?<p>You can set what to see first at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitlab.com&#x2F;profile&#x2F;preferences" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitlab.com&#x2F;profile&#x2F;preferences</a> page. We believe README is something people would like to see first we allow users to set different default page based on their preferences.<p>P.S. Thank you very much for your feedback. It will help us make GitLab UI more intuitive.
