# On the *File* menu, select *New Project…*
# In the *New Project* wizard, select *Create project from scratch*.
# Click the *Next* button.
# Change the *Project files location* to the Play application directory.
# Set the *Project file format* to your preferred format.
# Uncheck *Create module* (since the module already exists).
# Click the *Finish* button.
# On the *File* menu, select *New Module…*
# On the *Add Module* wizard, select *Import existing module*.
# Under *Select IDEA module file*, select the @.iml@ file in the application directory.
# Click the *Finish* button.
