title: Creating a Plugin Project
---
This section explains how you can create a new plugin project from a scratch using the New Project wizard.
Optionally, you can import an existing project or import a project from external models.
You can also add a new plugin module to an existing *Intellij IDEA* project.
For more information, refer to
[Intellij IDEA Web Help](http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/index.jsp?reference.dialogs.new.project).
## To create a plugin project:
* On the main menu, choose **File \| New \| Project**. The *New Project*
wizard starts.
