# Customize dashboard

Info

The Dashboard Builder is available only in the Experience and Commerce editions. The dashboard from the Headless edition can be customized using [Twig Components](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/templating/components/index.md).

You can customize the dashboard depending on your needs using Dashboard Builder. Customized dashboard displays a set of widgets selected by the user.

Tip

For detailed instruction on how to customize dashboards with the Dashboard Builder, see [User Documentation](https://doc.ibexa.co/projects/userguide/en/5.0/getting_started/dashboard/work_with_dashboard/#customize-dashboard).

## Manage permissions

To customize dashboard, you need to have `dashboard/customize` [policy](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/permissions/permission_overview/index.md).

By default, all the users belonging to the `Editors` user group, have `Dashboard`[role](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/administration/admin_panel/roles_admin_panel/index.md) assigned, so they can edit, create, or delete dashboard. If, by any reason, you want to narrow this permission, you can set up specific [limitations](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/permissions/limitations/index.md).

## Add custom layout

For new dashboard you need to choose layout which defines the available zones. While opening Dashboard Builder, layout window appears - you can choose one from available layouts.

You can also add custom layout that then can be available in Dashboard Builder.

For more information, see [Customize storefront layout](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/templating/layout/customize_storefront_layout/index.md).

## Create custom blocks

Dashboard Builder provides set of ready-to-use blocks, for example, Common content, Quick actions, or Ibexa DXP News.

For more information about available blocks, see [User Documentation](https://doc.ibexa.co/projects/userguide/en/5.0/getting_started/dashboard/dashboard_block_reference/).

In addition to existing blocks available in Dashboard Builder, you can also create custom blocks.

To do it, follow the instruction on how to [create custom page block](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/content_management/pages/create_custom_page_block/index.md).
