Create your GitLab project for Arm CI/CD

This section covers how to create a new GitLab project to use with Arm64 runners.

Before you begin, log in to your GitLab account or create a new one.

You need a GitLab project to store your application code and CI/CD configuration. You can either create a new project or use an existing one.

Note

If you’re using an existing project, skip to the next section.

Create a new project

Navigate to Projects in the left sidebar and select New Project:

Choose Create blank project or Create from template (select GitLab CI/CD components if using a template):
