Projects ​

After signing in for the first time, the editor needs to know where to store your projects on disk. From the dashboard you can then create new projects or open existing ones.

Choose a default projects folder ​

The first time you open the dashboard you'll see a prompt to pick a projects folder. This is the directory where every project you create or open lives.
