   In the PHP Explorer View, right-click and select New | Project.
   The New Project - Select a wizard dialog is displayed.

• Project Name: Enter the name of your project.

• Location: Enter the location folder for your project.

• Content: Select the content package you wish to work with in your project- Basic or Zend Studio's built-in Zend Framework.

• Version:

• If you chose to work with the built-in Zend Framework content package, Zend Framework 1.11.11 is used by default. If you wish to use a different version of Zend Framework, click on the dropdown menu and select Browse... to use a different Zend Framework library.

You may select a different server by clicking on the Host dropdown menu and clicking on New Server.

4. Two additional options are available for launching:

• Launch CLI Application: Select this option if you do not wish to enable deployment, and to launch your application as a Local CLI.

• Launch with Zend Application Deployment : Select this option to deploy your project on Zend Server, the Zend Developer Cloud or a Local server with deployment options.
  For more information on Zend's Application Deployment Support, see Working with Deployment.

   The Libraries dialog is displayed.
