# Hello, world
This guide will take you step by step through creating a new Vapor project, building it, and running the server.
If you have not yet installed Swift or Vapor Toolbox, check out the install section.
- [Install → macOS](../install/macos.md)
- [Install → Ubuntu](../install/ubuntu.md)
## New Project
The first step is to create a new Vapor project on your computer. Open up your terminal and use Toolbox's new project command. This will create a new folder in the current directory containing the project.
```sh
vapor-beta new hello -n
```
!!! tip
The `-n` flag gives you a bare bones template by automatically answering no to all questions.
Once the command finishes, change into the newly created folder and open Xcode.
```sh
cd hello
open Package.swift
```
## Build & Run
You should now have Xcode open. Click the play button to build and run your project.
You should see the terminal pop up at the bottom of the screen.
```sh
[ INFO ] Server starting on http://127.0.0.1:8080
```
## Visit Localhost
Open your web browser, and visit <a href="http://localhost:8080/hello" target="_blank">localhost:8080/hello</a>
You should see the following page.
```html
Hello, world!
```
Congratulations on creating, building, and running your first Vapor app! 🎉
