*Learn how to start building projects with the Tulip SDK*

### Introduction

1. What you will learn
  1. How to set up an edge driver project
2. What you will need (pre-requisites)
  1. An IDE (Integrated Development Environment) - [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/introvideos/basics)
  2. [Node.js and NPM](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm)
  3. The [Tulip Edge Driver NPM Package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@tulip/edge-driver-sdk)

### Getting Started

Getting started is pretty straightforward, thanks to our create-edge-driver tool that can be run from npm! From a terminal, navigate to the directory where you want to create your new edge driver. Run the following command to start create-edge-driver which will guide you through setting up the project:

```
npx @tulip/create-edge-driver
```

Follow the prompts and select the services that you need. ![SDK](https://cdn.document360.io/7c6ff534-cad3-4fc8-9583-912c4016362f/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202025-03-27%20at%2011.12.11%20AM.png)

Once finished, the tool will give you instructions on how to compile the included example driver, which will compile the TypeScript code, validate the driver's manifest, and bundle everything together to test in Player!
