# Create a project with Vue

To create a new project, run:

```
// Some code
```

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you are on Windows using Git Bash with minTTY, the interactive prompts will not work. 

You must launch the command as `winpty vue.cmd create hello-world`. 

If you however want to still use the `vue create hello-world` syntax, you can alias the command by adding the following line to your `~/.bashrc` file. `alias vue='winpty vue.cmd'` You will need to restart your Git Bash terminal session to pull in the updated bashrc file.
{% endhint %}

You will be prompted to pick a preset. You can either choose the default preset which comes with a basic Babel + ESLint setup, or select "Manually select features" to pick the features you need.

The default setup is great for quickly prototyping a new project, while the manual setup provides more options that are likely needed for more production-oriented projects.

If you chose to manually select features, at the end of the prompts you also have the option to save your selections as a preset so that you can reuse it in the future. We will discuss presets and plugins in the next section.

{% hint style="success" %}
\~/.vuerc

Saved presets will be stored in a JSON file named `.vuerc` in your user home directory. If you wish to modify saved presets / options, you can do so by editing this file.

During the project creation process, you may also be prompted to select a preferred package manager, or use the [Taobao npm registry mirror](https://npmmirror.com/) for faster dependency installation. Your choices will also be saved in `~/.vuerc`.
{% endhint %}

The `vue create` command has a number of options and you can explore them all by running:

vue create --help
