Save projects as templates

Last modified: 10 August 2022

If you have a project that you want to reproduce when creating new projects, you can save it as a custom project template. The IDE recreates the project tree with files and folders, build configurations, libraries, SDKs, and language level settings.

IntelliJ IDEA saves all project settings from the .idea folder to the template. So if you want your new projects to have some predefined run/debug configurations, select the Store as project file checkbox in these configurations before you save the template.
