## Table Creation |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once you have created a new NocoDB project you can open it, In the browser, the URL would be like `example.com/dashboard/#/nc/project_id`. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you can start creating new tables, so let's begin the table creation by simply clicking one of the following options. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![table_create](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/61551451/126771744-063f22da-6def-43fe-b9ef-1744d104db9d.png) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On click, it will popup a table create a modal popup, in which you can enter the table name alias and table name. Enable/disable default columns and finally click the `Submit` button. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![table_create_modal](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/61551451/126772859-5a301c45-d830-4df2-a05a-43b15dd77728.png) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> You can't disable the `id` column since we need a primary column for the table. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the successful submission, the table will create and open as a new tab. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Column Creation |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Adding a column is simple, you have to click the `+` icon on the right corner of the table. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![Step 9](../../static/s3/9.png)![Pasted_Image_23_07_21__4_39_PM](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/61551451/126773798-4470d632-69e0-4f5f-803b-e3597715fe22.png) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the click, it will show a menu and you can enter the column name and choose the column type ([Abstract type](./abstract-types)) from the column type. And finally, you can click the save button to create the new column. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> For more about Abstract type [click here](./abstract-types). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Finally, we have our new column as part of our table. |
||||||
