 ## Customizing Your Home Page

 Of course, you are also free to write your own pages. It is strongly suggested that you at least have an index page, but none of the pages provided are mandatory to include in your site. More information on how to use the provided components or include your own can be found [here](api-pages.md). Information on how to link to your different pages in the header navigation bar can be found [here](guides-navigation.md).
 
+> If you want your page to show up in your navigation header, you will need to update `siteConfig.js` to add to the `headerLinks` element. e.g., `{ page: "about-slash", label: "About/"}`,

 ## Adding Static Pages
 
 Static `.html` files can also be used, but they will not include Docusaurus's header, footer, or styles by default. These can be added to the `static` folder in the same way as other [static assets](api-pages.md#using-static-assets). Alternatively, they can be placed in the `pages` folder and would be served as-is instead of being rendered from React.

You will find different variations of her throughout the <a href="https://docusaurus.io">website</a>, whether she is moving fast on her scooter or writing documentation at her standing desk. At Facebook, we have actual Slash plushies -- and you never know, you may see these plushies at various events and conferences in the future.

+            The team sat in a conference room trying to come up with a name for the project. Dinosaurs became a theme, finally landing on Docusaurus, combining documentation with those many dinosaurus that end in "saurus". Of course, we needed a logo for our new project. Eric sat down and designed a logo that was quite beyond the norm of our normal open source project logos, but yet was just so awesome, we had to use it. We needed a name for this cute Docusaur. "Marky" for markdown? "Docky" for documentation? No, "Slash" for the normal way someone starts code documentation in many programming languages <code>//</code> or <code>/*</code> or <code>///</code>. And Slash was born.
