# Create new project

When you log in to the BetterBugs dashboard for the first time, you'll see "**My Project**" as the default project in your current workspace (default: My Workspace). 

You can also create project(s) in your workspace or edit an existing one (from [project settings](https://docs.betterbugs.io/dashboard/project-settings)).
