In Harbor, you create different projects to which you assign users so that they can push and pull image repositories. You also configure project-specific settings. When you first deploy Harbor, a default public project named `library` is created.
## Prerequisites
Log in to Harbor with a Harbor administrator or project administrator account.
## Procedure
1. Go to **Projects** and click **New Project**.
1. Provide a name for the project.
1. (Optional) Check the **Public** check box to make the project public.
If you set the project to **Public**, any user can pull images from this project. If you leave the project set to **Private**, only users who are members of the project can pull images. You can toggle projects from public to private, or the reverse, at any moment after you create the project.

5. Click **OK**.
After the project is created, you can browse repositories, members, logs, replication and configuration using the navigation tab.
![browse project](../img/new_browse_project.png)
There are two views to show repositories, list view and card view, you can switch between them by clicking the corresponding icon.
Entering a keyword in the search field at the top lists all matching projects and repositories. The search result includes both public and private repositories you have access to.
