As a cluster administrator, you can allow and configure how developers and service accounts can create, or _self-provision_, their own projects.

In {product-title}, _projects_ are used to group and isolate related objects.
When you request to create a new project by using the web console or `oc new-project` command, an endpoint in {product-title} provisions the project according to a template.
You can customize this template to meet your needs.
