# Converting from the IDE
1. [Create a project](/blackdiamond-studio-or-mobilize.net/blackdiamond-studio-documentation/bds-portal/creating-my-first-project.md) in the [web portal](https://bds.mobilize.net/) and upload [your source code](/blackdiamond-studio-or-mobilize.net/blackdiamond-studio-documentation/bds-portal/creating-my-first-project/5.-code.md).
2. You can also import code into the IDE:
1. Create a new folder and name it "**Sources.**\
\
2. Drag a folder or a file to the **Sources** folder.\
\
3. If the file or folder you want to convert is not located in the **Sources** folder it could not be converted.
3. After you finish your project setup, on the project home page, click on the **Open IDE** button.
3\. If you are already in the IDE, go to the IDE explorer and right-click on the file or folder you want to convert, then select the **BlackDiamond: Convert** option from the contextual menu.\
4\. The conversion progress will be shown in the bottom bar.
5\. When the conversion is finished you can do the following:
1\. Check the conversion results in the **Target** folder.
2\. Compare the source and target code **\[Link to this IDE section]**.
3\. Check the reports generated by SnowConvert.
