# View Source mix new (Mix v1.16.3)

Creates a new Elixir project. It expects the path of the project as argument.

    $ mix new PATH [--app APP] [--module MODULE] [--sup] [--umbrella]

A project at the given PATH will be created. The application name and module name will be retrieved from the path, unless `--module` or `--app` is given.

An `--app` option can be given in order to name the OTP application for the project.

A `--module` option can be given in order to name the modules in the generated code skeleton.

A `--sup` option can be given to generate an OTP application skeleton including a supervision tree. Normally an app is generated without a supervisor and without the app callback.

An `--umbrella` option can be given to generate an umbrella project.

## Examples

    $ mix new hello_world

Is equivalent to:

    $ mix new hello_world --module HelloWorld

To generate an app with a supervision tree and an application callback:

    $ mix new hello_world --sup

To generate an umbrella application with sub applications:

    $ mix new hello_world --umbrella
    $ cd hello_world/apps
    $ mix new child_app
