# How to create a project in GitLab
 
To create a new project, sign in to GitLab.
A project includes the Git repository, an issue and merge request tracker,
and a dedicated wiki.
 
Go to your Dashboard and click on "new project" on the right side of your screen.
When you create a new project, you can:
 
![Create a project](img/new_project.png)
- [Import a project][import] from another provider
- Provide an optional description
- Set the [visibility level] for that project such as Private, Internal or Public.
 
Fill out the required information:
---
 
1. Project path or the name of your project (you can't add spaces, so you can use hyphens or underscores)
There are 2 ways to create a new project. You can go to your Dashboard and
click on **New Project** on the right side of your screen or use the plus (`+`)
button which is always visible in the upper right corner.
 
1. Your project's description

can use hyphens or underscores instead)
