# What does an Emolysis project look like?

> A plain folder you own and keep in your own repository, with models, pipelines, tests and an emolysis.yml file that names the platform.

A plain folder that you own and keep in your own repository. `models/` holds the transformations, `pipelines/` holds the pipelines built from templates, `tests/` holds the golden test fixtures and expected outputs, and `emolysis.yml` names the target platform.

Each project also keeps a local lakehouse for samples, which is not meant to be committed. Credentials are never written to the project; they live in your machine's credential store.

The layout is familiar to anyone who has used a SQL modeling tool. [Projects and emolysis.yml](https://emolysis.com/docs/projects) describes each file, and the [quickstart](https://emolysis.com/docs/quickstart) walks through a first session from an empty folder to a deployed pipeline.
