+=================
+For the Impatient
+=================
+
+When you first launch the Crown Editor and no projects exist, Crown
+automatically generates a temporary project and opens it. This lets you
+explore the editor immediately without any extra steps.
+
+.. image:: images/temp_project.png
+
+At this point you can either jump straight into the :ref:`level_editor` basics
+to get a feel for the editor’s features, or close the temporary project and
+create a new one yourself, for example, starting from a featureful template.
+
+To close the temporary project, choose ``File`` -> ``Close Project``:
+
+.. image:: images/temp_project_close.png
+
+You will be asked whether to save or discard the temporary project. Choose
+``Save`` to keep your work (the project will then appear in the Projects
+List), or ``Close without Saving`` to discard it. After closing the temporary
+project, Crown opens the Projects List, where you can :ref:`create a new
+project <create_new_project>`.
+
+.. image:: images/temp_project_close_confirmation.png
+
+Tip: If you plan to continue working on what you created during this session,
+save the temporary project before closing. If you were just experimenting,
+discarding it is fine; you can always start a new project from a template
+later.

+<p>When you first launch the Crown Editor and no projects exist, Crown
+automatically generates a temporary project and opens it. This lets you
+explore the editor immediately without any extra steps.</p>
+<img alt="../_images/temp_project.png" src="../_images/temp_project.png" />
+<p>At this point you can either jump straight into the <a class="reference internal" href="../level_editor/level_editor.html#level-editor"><span class="std std-ref">Level Editor overview</span></a> basics
+to get a feel for the editor’s features, or close the temporary project and
+create a new one yourself, for example, starting from a featureful template.</p>
+<p>To close the temporary project, choose <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">File</span></code> -&gt; <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Close</span> <span class="pre">Project</span></code>:</p>
+<img alt="../_images/temp_project_close.png" src="../_images/temp_project_close.png" />
+<p>You will be asked whether to save or discard the temporary project. Choose
+<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Save</span></code> to keep your work (the project will then appear in the Projects
+List), or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Close</span> <span class="pre">without</span> <span class="pre">Saving</span></code> to discard it. After closing the temporary
+project, Crown opens the Projects List, where you can <a class="reference internal" href="create_new_project.html#create-new-project"><span class="std std-ref">create a new
+project</span></a>.</p>
+<img alt="../_images/temp_project_close_confirmation.png" src="../_images/temp_project_close_confirmation.png" />
+<p>Tip: If you plan to continue working on what you created during this session,
+save the temporary project before closing. If you were just experimenting,
+discarding it is fine; you can always start a new project from a template
+later.</p>

+<p>The Level Editor is the first editor you encounter when starting Crown, and it
+is where you will spend most of your time when working on Crown projects. As
+the name suggests, its primary purpose is to help you create and edit Levels,
+but it also serves as a hub for browsing project files and a launchpad for
+accessing other specialized editors and tools.</p>
