Publishing | Notes are public | Optional | Optional |

You could view all your teams at once. Click on your name at the bottom of the sidebar and select My teams from the list of options. You will see all the teams you're in and your roles in them.
▲ View team profile page from the sidebar
Each team has its profile page at https://hackmd.io/@<team_name>
.
Filter team notes by tags with Tags at the top of the page. Search by note title and tag in the search bar next to the tags filter.
If you are a member of the team, you could switch between viewing either all the team notes or only published notes on the team's profile page.
The sidebar will show information about the team. Team members and contributors are visible for public teams, but hidden from outsiders for private teams.
