# Creating a project

**To create a project you need to choose the program you want to program through (I recommend Visual Studio):**

* [Visual Studio](https://outpath-modding.gitbook.io/outpath-modding/for-developers/how-to-create-a-mod/creating-a-project/visual-studio)
* [Visual Studio Code](https://outpath-modding.gitbook.io/outpath-modding/for-developers/how-to-create-a-mod/creating-a-project/visual-studio-code)
* [Rider](https://outpath-modding.gitbook.io/outpath-modding/for-developers/how-to-create-a-mod/creating-a-project/rider)

**You can proceed immediately to the second point if you use the** [**mod template**](https://github.com/Outpath-Modding-Team/TemplateMod)
