Let's create a new SharePoint solution.
? What is your solution name? nameOfYourProject
? Which baseline packages do you want to target for your component(s)? SharePoint Online only (latest)
? Where do you want to place the files? Use the current folder
? Do you want to allow the tenant admin the choice of being able to deploy the solution to all sites immediately without running any feature deployment or adding apps in sites? No
? Which type of client-side component to create? WebPart

Hope this will ease you to start with the SPFx project.


Happy Coding
