# Node-RED Editor Palette
The Palette is the left sidebar that contains all available nodes, including core nodes and third-party nodes that are installed.
# Search Bar
Located at the top of the Palette, the search bar allows you to quickly find nodes by their name.
# Node Categories
The palette is divided into several categories, each containing collections of nodes. When you install a third-party node, it may create a new category. Subflows are categorized under "Subflows".
You can collapse or expand categories by clicking on the specific category.
# Collapse All Categories
At the bottom of the palette, you'll find two arrow icons. Clicking on the first up arrow icon will collapse all categories.
# Expand All Categories
Clicking on the down arrow icon will expand all categories back as default.
# Toggle Palette
Clicking this button hides the palette sidebar. To show it again, click on the button once more.
