> During this stage, please see the [epic](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/9044) for an update on our progress.. You might be posting a bug that is actually something we haven't built yet. )
## Overview
The ~"Navigation redesign" will be available to dogfood by all GitLab team members starting in %15.11 through %16.0 with the goal of getting real feedback.
- This experiment **should not break your core workflows** (parity with old)
- Three major **enhancements** to Navigation should increase useability: Our reclassification into only 6 top-level buckets, the Your Work navigation, and Pinning (allows custom navigation pins on projects/groups and will be delivered a week or two into the beta)
## Instructions - please read before posting!
