A Flyway Project is the collection of folders and files that track the database objects and migration scripts.  A project also contains settings and other configuration files.  

A project in Flyway Desktop allows you to track changes to a development database and generate migration scripts that can be versioned controlled and used for continuous integration and automated deployments.  One person on your team should create the project and commit/push it to your version control system to start working with other team members.  Other team members can then clone or pull the latest version version control and then use the Flyway Desktop home screen to open an existing project.

If you are using Git, we recommend that you clone the repository to your machine first to create a local repository that you will work in.

To create a new project, click New project... on the home screen.

This will bring up a New Project page. 

Configure the project

Enter a name for the new project and specify the location on disk for the project files that will be created.  If you want to use the integrated Git functionality, then this folder should be in an existing local Git repository. It's best if you capture these changes in a dedicated area, maybe by creating a "Database" folder in an existing repository.  This way all database related scripts can be kept together. 

You can choose to add the Project name as a folder at the end of the location specified or not.

Select the Database Type.  In this example, we use SQL Server.

Click Create project.
