Create a new project and import content

A Kanzi Studio project contains all the content and preferences for your Kanzi application. When you create a new project, Kanzi Studio creates a project directory in your Kanzi Studio workspace and adds to that directory the required file structure for the project. When importing content to your project, Kanzi Studio copies the imported content to the project directory.

You defined the location of the Kanzi Studio workspace during the installation.

In this step you first create a new project, then you import the content to your project.
