Overview
The overview is divided into two parts: Summary and Validators
The summary is a small dashboard with all important information such as validators count, nominators count, actual era, and many others
In the validators, the user is able to see info about validators on the selected network. As an example users can see how much currency the actual validator staked, the commission of the current validator.
Actions

Moreover, clicking on the⋮
button user are able to see actions available for the stash.
Users are also able to add a new nominator using the + Nominator
button.
On the first image below the user selects account for the stash, account for the controller, funds to nominate, and reward destination.
If the stash account is protected by a password, the user has to also type a password.
User is able to choose the same account for stash and controller, however, it's not recommended.
On the second screen shown below the user is able to select validator accounts.
Using the + Validator
button user can add a new validator.
The first screen for adding a validator is the same as the first page of adding a nominator.
The second screen allows the user to set session keys and commission.
Clicking on the green Generate
