# Browsers

GMPC uses internal "Browsers" to customize the various viewing possibilities GMPC has to offer. You can switch between the different views either through the sidebar or in the single collapsed view (though buttons/dropdown depending on your options). Other ways to quickly switch between them are the main interface's "Go" menu or shortcuts.
