- You can create one automatically from an exported Vivado hardware project (XSA).
Click Next to proceed.
- Provide the name of the application project

application.

Linux application projects. The tool automatically creates
the system project. You can change name of the system
project. Click Next

The software platform provides useful sample applications listed in the Templates page that you can use to create your project. The Description box displays a brief description of the selected sample application. When you use a sample application for your project, the Vitis software platform creates the required source and header files and linker script.
- Select the desired template. If you want to create a blank
project, select Empty
Application.
You can then add C files to the project, after the project is created.
- Click Finish to create your application
project and board support package (if it does not
exist).Note: Xilinx recommends that you use the managed makeflow rather than standard make C/C++ flow with Makefiles.
