# create

The vcluster create command allows you to create a new virtual cluster within your project. This command can be executed using flags or interactively through TUI mode.

## Usage

```
cldkctl vcluster create [flags]
```

## Steps

1. A virtual cluster can be created directly by using flags. Run the following command in the terminal:

```
cldkctl vcluster create --name [name] --vcluster-name [vcluster name] --compute-profile [compute profile] --namespace [namespace] 
```

2. Replace `[name]` with the desired instance name, `[vcluster name]` with the virtual cluster name, `[compute profile]` with the selected compute profile, and `[namespace]` with the namespace name.
3. Alternatively, run the command interactively using TUI mode by entering:

```
cldkctl vcluster create 
```

4. In the TUI interface, select the available compute profile.
5. Enter the instance name.
6. Enter the virtual cluster name.
7. Enter the namespace.
8. Confirm the VPN creation by pressing y for Confirm or n for Cancel.
