+# Creating a New Workspace
+
+A [workspace][def-workspace] is a collection of one or more packages, 
+called workspace members, that are managed together.
+
+In this chapter, we will create a workspace `new_workspace` containing 
+binary member `foo` and library member `bar`.
+
+As mentioned in [`[workspace]` section][workspace-section], the workspace must 
+have at least one member, either the [root package] or a [virtual manifest].
+
+Next we create a workspace containing [root package].
+For convenience, you can first create a package using the command `cargo new new_workspace`.
+Then add the `[workspace]` section to the `Cargo.toml` file in the root directory 
+to make it a manifest of the workspace:
+
+```toml
+# [new_workspace]/Cargo.toml
+[workspace]
+
+[package]
+name = "new_workspace"
+version = "0.1.0"
+edition = "2021"
+
+# See more keys and their definitions at https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html
+
+[dependencies]
+```
+
+Then, continue adding members `foo` and `bar` to the workspace:
+
+```console
+$ cd new_workspace
+$ cargo new foo
+$ cargo new bar --lib
+```
+
+Cargo will automatically add members to `Cargo.toml`。
+At this point, the workspace will contain three members: `foo` and `bar` and 
+the default member `new_workspace`.
+
+```toml
+# [new_workspace]/Cargo.toml
+[workspace]
+members = [ "bar", "foo" ]
+
+[package]
+name = "new_workspace"
+version = "0.1.0"
+edition = "2021"
+
+# See more keys and their definitions at https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html
+
+[dependencies]
+```
+
+The package at this point contains the following files:
+
+```console
+$ cd new_workspace
+$ tree .
+.
+├── bar
+│   ├── Cargo.toml
+│   └── src
+│       └── lib.rs
+├── Cargo.toml
+├── foo
+│   ├── Cargo.toml
+│   └── src
+│       └── main.rs
+└── src
+    └── main.rs
+
+5 directories, 6 files
+```
+
+Let's move on and create a virtual workspace.
+
+In the another `new_workspace` empty directory, create a new `Cargo.toml` file and 
+add the `[workspace]` section:
+
+```toml
+# [new_workspace]/Cargo.toml
+[workspace]
+```
+
+If using a virtual workspace, then the version of [resolver] needs to be specified 
+in the table (if not, the default version of resolver for a workspace is `1`, 
+even if the default resolver version for workspace members is `2`), for example:
+
+```toml
+# [new_workspace]/Cargo.toml
+[workspace]
+resolver = "2"
+```
+
+Likewise, you can then use the `cargo new <package>` command to create 
+binary member `foo` and library member `bar`.
+
+
+```toml
+# [new_workspace]/Cargo.toml
+[workspace]
+resolver = "2"
+members = [ "bar","foo"]
+
+```
+
+The package at this point contains the following files:
+
+```console
+$ cd new_workspace
+$ tree .
+.
+├── bar
+│   ├── Cargo.toml
+│   └── src
+│       └── lib.rs
+├── Cargo.toml
+└── foo
+    ├── Cargo.toml
+    └── src
+        └── main.rs
+
+4 directories, 5 files
+```
+
+Up to this point, we have a workspace with two members.
+Whenever you run `cargo build` under the workspace root directory, Cargo builds 
+all member at once.
+Instead of building the entire workspace, you could use the `--package`/`-p` flag 
+to select certain packages.
+For example, `cargo build -p foo` will build only `foo` package.
