First, create a new folder and `cd` into it: ```bash mkdir my-project cd my-project ``` Then, use the `yo` command to generate your new project: ```bash yo vapor ``` Follow the instructions to choose which packages you would like to use. ## Contributing Help us improve this generator by contributing to [vapor-community/yeoman](https://github.com/vapor-community/yeoman).
