🔧Creating Projects

In order to create a program, a project has to be initialized first. There are two different ways to do this: you can create a new empty project or start from a pre-built template.

Create a new empty project

New empty projects can be created from the home page of the Mindtrade interface.

Just click on New Project and choose a name and optionally a description.

By clicking on Save, you will be redirected to the project editor. This is where you can start actually building your program.

Start from a pre-built template

Templates are pre-built programs that can be re-used across different projects. It is recommended to read the Templates documentation section before proceeding, in order to understand how they work and why they are useful.

To create a project from a template, head to the Templates page first.

Once you chose a template from which you want to start, just click on it to create a new project using the chosen template.

Choose a name for the project, optionally add a description and click on Save. You will be redirected to the project editor, where the program template will already be loaded.

Project editor usage

Wether you created an empty project from scratch or you loaded a template, you are now ready to edit your program. Refer to the Editing Programs sections for detailed information on how to use the project editor to tailor your program to your specific needs.
