Now that we've got all the required pages, let's explore how users can move around them. Traditionally, we might employ the default HTML `<a>` tag. However, the issue with this approach is that it triggers a full page reload, impacting the user experience.

Next.js proposes using the `<Link>` component, enabling us to facilitate **client-side navigation**.

## Back to the Project
To implement the client-side navigation, access `app/ui/dashboard/nav-links.tsx`, import the `Link` component from `next/link`, and substitute the `<a>` tag with `<Link>`.

Upon saving your changes, test your localhost to enable seamless page navigation without refreshing the page.
