== Best way to start a "new" Project
|
|
|
Since there are may configurations well hidden in the project settings, that can severely impact the behavior of the binary, the *recommended way* is:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Clone the demo Project from the GIT repository, then
|
|
|
* copy it locally in the workspace.
|
|
|
* Rename afterward to suite your needs. +
