Tour the Kazi workspace
Find your way around Kazi OS: the app launcher, tabs, File Manager, split view, Command Launcher, notifications and settings.
Everything in Kazi happens in one window. Here's what you'll find.
The top bar
- OS Suite / File Manager: your files and folders. See Files and folders.
- App buttons (+ Docs, + Sheets, + Slides, + PDF, + Notes, + Forms, + Draw, + Mail): each creates a new file in that app and opens it in a tab.
- Split View: shows two files side by side, for example a spreadsheet next to the report you're writing.
- Share: shares the open file. See Sharing.
- Local Vault / sync status: shows where your files are saved and whether cloud sync is up to date.
- Kazi AI: opens the AI studio. The number next to it is your remaining monthly AI allowance.
- Profile: sign in, create an account, manage your mailbox and sign out.
- Notifications (bell), Settings (gear) and Dark mode (moon).
Tabs
Every file you open gets a tab under the top bar, so you can switch between a document, a sheet and your inbox instantly. A dot on a tab means it has unsaved changes. Right-click a tab or double-click its title to rename the file.
Command Launcher
Press Ctrl+K (⌘K on Mac) to search and jump to anything: open a file, create a new one, or run an action. It's the fastest way to move around Kazi.
Each app's menu bar
Every app has a familiar menu bar (File, Edit, View, Insert, Format…) with keyboard shortcuts shown next to each command, and a toolbar for the most common actions. Most apps also have a Studio or Dock panel on the right for AI, insights and advanced tools.
Split View
Click Split View to place two open files side by side. Drag the divider to resize. Click Split View again to return to one file.
Notifications
The bell collects mail alerts, sync messages and app updates. Configure pop-ups and sounds in Kazi Mail → Alerts & Pop-ups.
Light and dark mode
Click the moon/sun button in the top-right corner. Kazi follows your system setting until you choose.
