The Inventory
The inventory menu is essential to the Resonite experience. It allows you to save and browse objects, including tools, avatars, decorations, and so forth. You can also manage your favorites, such as your default avatar and your home world.
Your inventory is a lot like your computer's filesystem. Items can be organized into folders, and folders can contain other folders. To spawn an item or enter a folder, double click it with your laser. Single-clicking will select the item, allowing you to do various things with it:
Currently you are unable to move items between folders; you can achieve this by spawning an item and saving it again in the new folder, then deleting it from the old.

Storage
All accounts start with 1 Gigabyte (GB) of storage space by default for saving their own avatars, worlds, and other objects, and can be increased by supporting Resonite's patreon.
Some things to note about storage allocation and functionality:
- Duplicates of a saved item will only increment the necessary storage amount needed for the updated parts on a saved item. (Ex: Adding a hat to an avatar will only save the additional storage for that hat's data.)
- The "Resonite Essentials" folder that is available on all accounts does not contribute to your active storage usage.
- Shared folders from other community members will allow you to access the contents without contributing to your own storage allocation. Keep in mind, if a public folder shared by a user is unshared, it will no longer allow access to the content within.
Resonite Essentials
The Resonite Essentials public folder is maintained by the Resonite Team and has folders for things like assets (3D models, textures, materials, and the Dawn modular building set), avatars, facets, tools, and more. This folder is automatically added to every Resonite account and does not contribute to your overall storage accumulation.
The world-submission pedestal, a mirror, and the default camera are found in the top level of the folder.
Resonite Tools
These are some of the default tools you will need, want, or use when your trying to interact or build things within Resonite. There is a separate page on Tools for further information.
You may come across more tools while exploring Resonite such as various MultiTools that combine multiple tools into one; these are community tools made by various groups or individuals in the community and are not officially supported by the Resonite Team.
