+
+- Page dashboard where you can get an overview of all your markdown pages. You can use it to search, filter, sort your contents.

 > If you see something missing in your article creation flow, please feel free to reach out.

+**Version 3**
+
+In version v3 we introduced the welcome and dashboard webview. The welcome view allows to get you started using the extension, and the dashboard allows you to manage all your markdown pages in one place. This makes it easy to search, filter, sort, and more.
+
 **Version 2**

-In version v2.0.0 we released the newly redesigned sidebar panel with improved SEO support. This extension makes it the only extension to manage your Markdown pages for your static sites in Visual Studio Code.

+## Welcome view
+
+The first time you open the dashboard, or when you did not initialize the Front Matter extension yet, the welcome view will get shown.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img src="./assets/v3.0.0/welcome.png" alt="Welcome to Front Matter" style="display: inline-block" />
+</p>
+
+It also supports light themes:

+</p>
+
+## Markdown features
+
+The Front Matter extension tries to make it easy to manage your Markdown pages/content. Within a Markdown page, we allow you to fold the file's Front Matter to be less distracting when writing. Also, do we highlight the Front Matter content to create a visual difference between content and metadata.

+  <img src="./assets/v2.4.0/fm-highlight.png" alt="Front Matter highlighting" style="display: inline-block" />
+</p>
+
+> **Info**: If you do not want this feature, you can disable it in the extension settings -> `Highlight Front Matter` or by setting the `frontMatter.content.fmHighlight` setting to `false`.
+
+## Dashboard
+
+Managing your Markdown pages has never been easier in VS Code. With the Front Matter dashboard, you will be able to view all your pages and search through them, filter, sort, and much more.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img src="./assets/v3.0.0/dashboard.png" alt="Dashboard" style="display: inline-block" />
+</p>
+
+In order to start using the dashboard, you will have to let the extension know in which folder(s) it can find your pages. A content folder can be registered or unregistered, by right-clicking on the folder in your VSCode explorer panel and clicking on the `Register folder` or `Unregister folder` menu item.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img src="./assets/v2.1.0/register-folder.png" alt="Register/unregister a folder" style="display: inline-block" />
+</p>
+
+> **Info**: If you want, you can click on the `Open on startup?` checkbox. This setting will allow the dashboard to automatically open when you launch the project in VS Code. It will only apply to the current project, not for all of them.
+
+> **Details**: If your preview images aren't loaded, it might be that you need to configure the `publicFolder` where the extension can find them. For instance, in Hugo this is the `static` folder. You can configure this by updating the `frontMatter.content.publicFolder` setting.

+
+## Site preview
+
+The Markdown preview is not consistently delivering the same result as the one you will see on your site. The Front Matter extension provides you a way to show the site result. For this, you will first have to set the `frontMatter.preview.host` setting. You can perform it from the `Global Settings` section in the panel or in your `settings.json` file to set the setting.
+
+For example, with Hugo, the local server spins up on `http://localhost:1313`. When you set this URL as the value of the `frontMatter.preview.host` setting. You can click on the `open preview` button and the site preview will be shown.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img src="./assets/v2.5.0/site-preview.png" alt="Site preview" style="display: inline-block" />
+</p>
+
+> **Important**: Be sure to spin up your local server. This is an action the extension currently doesn't do for you. If you want, you create yourself a custom action in order to start it.
+
 ## Custom actions

 Since version `1.15.0`, the extension allows you to create your own custom actions, by running Node.js scripts from your project. In order to use this functionality, you will need to configure the [`frontMatter.custom.scripts`](#frontmattercustomscripts) setting for your project.
