Getting Started with Leaderbook

Welcome to Leaderbook. This guide walks you through account creation, your first sign-in, and the basic navigation so you can start capturing and organizing your work right away.

Getting Started with Leaderbook

1. Account Creation

Leaderbook uses a simple, low-friction sign-up flow.

Steps

  1. Open the Leaderbook website.
  2. Click Create Account.
  3. Choose one of the available methods:
  • Email magic link / verification code
  • Google account
  1. Follow the instructions sent to your email (magic link or 6-digit code).
Notes:
- No password management required when using magic links.
- You can always switch sign-in methods later from settings.

2. First Sign-In

If you used a verification code:

  • Enter the 6-digit code on the verification screen.
  • You will be redirected automatically after confirmation.

After successful authentication, you are taken directly into your personal workspace.

What happens on first sign-in:

  • Your account is initialized.
  • A default workspace is created.
  • You land in the Focus view.

3. Basic Navigation

Leaderbook is intentionally minimal. Everything revolves around capturing, processing, and revisiting work.

Main Areas

Focus View

  • Default entry point.
  • Shows items you are actively working on.
  • Helps reduce noise and keep attention on what matters now.

Browse

  • Shows notes and tasks across your active notebook.
  • Use search and tags to refine what you see.

Archive

  • Archived items.
  • Keeps history without cluttering active views.

4. Core Actions

From any view, you can:

  • Add a new task or note
  • Open an item to see details
  • Assign tags (#topic) or people (@name)
  • Set due dates or follow-ups
  • Complete or archive items

5. Next Steps

Once you’re comfortable navigating:

  • Start tagging items to build structure.
  • Create saved Spaces to bundle filters.

For deeper workflows, continue with:

  • Tagging That Actually Works
  • Spaces and Saved Views

You’re ready to go. Capture first. Organize later. Stay focused.
