# Projects

{% hint style="info" %}
The following is applicable starting with version 0.1.6
{% endhint %}

For Schéma, project is a collection of related layouts, stacks, configuration and other assets.

Each project lives in its own directory and has a set directory structure.

All of these project directories are placed in Documents/Schema.

## Choosing and creating projects

When you start Schéma, you are prompted to choose a project to load.

The last opened project is highlighted.

![](/files/-MJCNnBTNIfaSpY8FhFO)

If you enter a new name, a new project will be created based on the *default* project next to the Schéma executable.

If you wish to skip this selection, for instance for unattended installations, you can use the following command line arguments when starting Schéma:

| Command            | Function                                                            |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| -p \[Project Name] | Skip project selection screen and load/create the specified project |
| -p :last           | Skip project selection screen and load the last opened project      |
