# Projections
Projections are a way to define relations between files. Every file can have a
"related" or "alternate" file. It's common to consider spec files to be
"alternate" files to source files.
## How to use it
- Install an editor plugin that consumes projections
- Copy `.projections.json.example` to `.projections.json`
## How to customize it
You can find a basic list of projection options in
[projectionist.txt](https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist/blob/master/doc/projectionist.txt)
