# How to create a project in GitLab
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to create a new project in GitLab.
|
||||
|
||||
1. While in your dashboard, you can create a new project using the **New project**
|
||||
green button or you can use the cross icon in the upper right corner next to
|
||||
your avatar which is always visible.
|
||||
1. In your dashboard, click the green **New project** button or use the plus
|
||||
icon in the upper right corner of the navigation bar.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
1. From there you can see several options.
|
||||
1. This opens the **New project** page.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
1. Fill out the information:
|
||||
1. Provide the following information:
|
||||
- Enter the name of your project in the **Project name** field. You can't use
|
||||
special characters, but you can use spaces, hyphens, underscores or even
|
||||
emoji.
|
||||
- If you have a project in a different repository, you can [import it] by
|
||||
clicking an **Import project from** button provided this is enabled in
|
||||
your GitLab instance. Ask your administrator if not.
|
||||
- The **Project description (optional)** field enables you to enter a
|
||||
description for your project's dashboard, which will help others
|
||||
understand what your project is about. Though it's not required, it's a good
|
||||
idea to fill this in.
|
||||
- Changing the **Visibility Level** modifies the project's
|
||||
[viewing and access rights](../public_access/public_access.md) for users.
|
||||
|
||||
1. "Project name" is the name of your project (you can't use special characters,
|
||||
but you can use spaces, hyphens, underscores or even emojis).
|
||||
1. The "Project description" is optional and will be shown in your project's
|
||||
dashboard so others can briefly understand what your project is about.
|
||||
1. Select a [visibility level](../public_access/public_access.md).
|
||||
1. You can also [import your existing projects](../workflow/importing/README.md).
|
||||
1. Click **Create project**.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Finally, click **Create project**.
|
||||
[import it]: ../workflow/importing/README.md
