## Navigation

To understand the main navigation, here are a few words about categories and tags:

> In the community, we distinguish between **categories** and **tags**.  
> While categories are like _folders_ used to structure content, tags can be seen as _annotations_ for every piece of content, independent of the folder the content is associated with.

On the left, you can find all main categories and tags. On the top left, you have a main navigation to access groups, users, and badges.

Hover over each category to see a short description.

On the top right, you can find the search function, your user profile, and options such as notification settings.

## Tags

Tags are used on all content we publish, and as a user, we ask you to do the same. This means that if you find specific tags interesting, you can easily subscribe to them.

To structure discussions in the forum, each topic requires **at least one tag** from the “Cumulocity” tag group: [device-connectivity](https://community.cumulocity.com/tag/device-connectivity), [analytics](https://community.cumulocity.com/tag/analytics), [cumulocity-edge](https://community.cumulocity.com/tag/cumulocity-edge), [thin-edge-io](https://community.cumulocity.com/tag/thin-edge-io), [platform-services](https://community.cumulocity.com/tag/platform-services), [app-enablement](https://community.cumulocity.com/tag/app-enablement), or [device-management](https://community.cumulocity.com/tag/device-management).

Each of these tags has sub-tags defined, which you can also use when selecting a parent tag.
