To create a new project, select File > New. The following dialog will appear:

Platform: The platform on which your project will run.

Available project types: Various quick-start templates. Select the one which is closest to what you are trying to achieve, and use the resulting project as a basis for your work.

Project name: A short name for your project. TIDE will use this name to create a folder for your project, and also to create a project file (.tpr) within this folder.

Location: A folder containing all of your projects. This folder which will contain the project sub-folder. The actual files for your project will go into the project sub-folder.

Target address: Platform-specific. See platform documentation. The address of the target you will use for debugging and testing this project. This should be a reachable address with a live target. Your project will still be created even if you do not specify this parameter, but you will not be able to upload or debug until you specify this setting using the Project Settings dialog.
