# [Set Up Your Project] - Default Dashboard Extensions

This page explains the default extensions available on the Contentstack stack Dashboard, what information they display, and how to access the Stack Dashboard. It is intended for developers (and stack users) who are setting up a project and want to understand the Dashboard’s default behavior.

## Default Dashboard Extensions

The Dashboard provides two extensions by default:
- Recently Modified Entries
- Recently Modified Assets

## Recently Modified Entries

The **Recently Modified Entries** extension displays the list of entries that were recently modified by any [user](/docs/developers/invite-users-and-assign-roles/about-stack-users) of the [stack](/docs/developers/set-up-stack/about-stack). At any time you will be able to view a maximum of **10** recently modified [entries](/docs/content-managers/working-with-entries/about-entries) along with the following details:
- [**Content type**](/docs/developers/create-content-types/about-content-types) to which the entry belongs
- **Name** of the user who modified the entry
- **Date** and **time** at which the entry was modified

Clicking on an entry will direct you to the entry page.

## Recently Modified Assets

The **Recently Modified Assets** extension displays the list of assets that were recently modified by any user of the stack. At any time, you will be able to view a maximum of **10** recently modified [assets](/docs/content-managers/working-with-assets/about-assets) along with the following details:
- **Title** of the asset
- **Name** of the user who modified the asset
- **Date** and **time** at which the asset was modified

Clicking on an asset will direct you to the Asset Details page.

## Access the Stack Dashboard

The Dashboard is the stack’s homepage. To access the Dashboard, follow the steps given below:
- Log in to your [Contentstack account](https://app.contentstack.com/#!/login).
- You will see the stacks that you have access to. Click on any stack of your choice.
- This will take you to the homepage of the stack, i.e., the Dashboard.

The Dashboard page has the same default extensions that we just discussed above.

**Additional Resource**: Along with default dashboard extensions, Contentstack provides you the flexibility to [create a custom dashboard extension.](/docs/developers/create-dashboard-extensions/create-a-new-dashboard-extension/) Optionally, you can refer to the documentation on [Google Analytics Dashboard Extension](/docs/developers/create-dashboard-extensions/google-analytics-dashboard-extension) to get started with custom dashboard extensions.

## Common questions
