Project Creation

Understand what a Serpent project is and how it connects your source control and orgs before you create one.

Try it in Serpent

A project is where Serpent connects a source control repository to the Salesforce orgs you develop against and release to. Work Items, reviews, actions, and releases all belong to a project.

Open the Projects area with the "Try it in Serpent" button above to explore a live project as you read.

What a project holds

  • The repository that stores your Salesforce metadata.
  • The orgs the project develops in and releases to.
  • The Work Items and releases that move changes through delivery.

Before you create one

Decide which repository the project should track and which orgs it needs. With those in hand, creating the project is a short guided step, covered in Create a New Project.
