public function tools()

        // ...
        (new NovaLinkResource())
                ->name('Users')
                ->to('/resources/users')
                ->icon(''),

        (new NovaLinkResource())
                ->name('Custom link')
                ->to('/resources/posts/1/edit')
                ->icon(''),

        (new NovaLinkResource())
                ->name('Custom link 2')

    ];
