# User Guide

## Create Subchain

### Install

> The npm version `seele-anchor-cli` (abbreviated to "anc") requires: 6.13.0+. Install anc globally with `-g` tag to use everywhere.

```bash
npm i -g seele-anchor-cli
anc -v # --version: Show version
anc -h # --help: Show help
```

### Initiate

> Navigating between anc projects will not require terminal navigation in the future. For now, anc creates a `.subchain/yourProjectName` in user's current working directory (abbreviated to "cwd"). Navigate to `yourProjectName` and open the directory with editor.

```bash
anc init -n mySubchain
```

### Start

> Configure [anc settings in conf.json](/wiki/developer/intro/seele-anchor-cli/2-conf.md). For private environment tools refer to [Developer resources](/wiki/developer/intro/seele-anchor-cli/1-test.md).

```bash
cd .subchain/mySubchain
anc fill      # Fill hashes
anc make -cd  # compile and deploy subchain to mainchain
anc show      # show results
```
