# Account Dashboard

> Customer account dashboard page showing order history and account overview

## What It Does

The **Account Dashboard** template displays when logged-in customers visit `/account`. This page serves as the main customer account hub, showing recent order history, account details, and navigation to other account pages (addresses, orders).

<Note>
  This is a **static template section** with no customizable settings. Layout and content are coded in the template. Customization requires code editing.
</Note>

## Template Content

### Default Sections

**Typical account dashboard includes:**

* **Welcome message** - "Welcome, \[Customer Name]"
* **Account navigation** - Links to Orders, Addresses, Account Details
* **Recent orders** - List of recent orders (order number, date, total, status)
* **Account overview** - Email, default address summary
* **Logout button**

### User Experience

**Customer flow:**

1. Customer logs in (via `/account/login`)
2. Redirected to account dashboard (`/account`)
3. Views recent orders, account info
4. Clicks navigation links to view full order history, edit addresses, etc.

## Best practices

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Clear Navigation" icon="bars">
    Account navigation should be prominent. Customers need easy access to Orders, Addresses, Account Settings pages.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Recent Orders Visible" icon="box">
    Display 3-5 most recent orders on dashboard. Link to full orders page for complete history.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Mobile-Friendly" icon="mobile">
    Account dashboard sees heavy mobile traffic. Ensure navigation tappable, orders readable on small screens.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Logout Accessible" icon="right-from-bracket">
    Logout button should be easily found (typically in account navigation or top-right).
  </Card>
</CardGroup>
