short-description: Project templates
...
# Project templates
To make it easier for new developers to start working, Meson ships a
tool to generate the basic setup of different kinds of projects. This
functionality can be accessed with the `meson init` command. A typical
project setup would go like this:
```console
$ mkdir project_name
$ cd project_name
$ meson init --language=c --name=myproject --version=0.1
```
This would create the build definitions for a helloworld type
project. The result can be compiled as usual. For example compiling it
with Ninja could be done like this:
```
$ meson builddir
$ ninja -C builddir
```
The generator has many different projects and settings. They can all
be listed by invoking the command `meson init --help`.
This feature is available since Meson version 0.45.0.
