+# New project template
+
+To create your own GridLAB-D simulation project you must do the following:
+
+1. Create a new repository using [`gridlabd-tutorials/.new_project`](https://github.com/gridlabd-tutorials/.new_project) as a template.
+2. Edit the file [`main.glm`](main.glm) to create your model.
+3. Go to the **[Actions](../../actions)** tab to view the result of the simulation run.
