A project holds one screenplay and everything that grows around it: its save points, its draft lines, its notes, and the results of every skill you run. Your projects page lists them all, most recently edited first.
The projects page — each card is one screenplay, with its last edit and a New project card at the end.

Choose Blank project to start from an empty page, or Learn Inkwell for a short script that walks you through the features. The Format menu below the title sets what you are writing — a screenplay unless you change it. To start from a Final Draft (
.fdx) or Fountain file instead, use Import beside New project on the projects page — see Import a Final Draft file.Create and start writing
Confirm. The editor opens on your new project with the first scene ready to type into. Your project title sits in the header; select it later to rename.
