Get name of resource in chunk?

Apologies if this is a stupid question, I’m very new to this CMS. I want to make a navigation list that will display the names for the resources by their id. I’ve started it as a chunk, but I’m starting to think it should be a snippet and needs to query the database.

So far I have:

Ideally I would replace home with a dynamic link to the name of resource 1. Is there a tag for this, or do I need to use a snippet?

Probably want to look into wayfinder for setting up the navigation. I’m sure what you’re looking to do is possible but I would imagine having a dynamic navigation overall will just make your life easier in the long run.

Cool, thanks. That looks like exactly what I want.

getResources is another useful one for listing other resources (though Wayfinder is the way to go for navigation).

And you can use getResourceField to grab a particular field from any other resource.
