when you say project are you talking about a route group?

and i want to have dashboard on same project which is home route "/"
what is home route? are you talking about the root layout?
might be easier if you share a screenshot of your directory

beacuse they can have their own layouts
i was modifing root layout so it was adding on all routes
now i can make route group and add home route to it

yeah since all layouts inherit their parents - best practice is to keep the root layout as simple as possible and use route groups to organise your layouts
