Welcome to the OpenProject User guide.
5 years ago
Here you will learn about all functionalities in OpenProject.
## Overview of projects in OpenProject
Your work in OpenProject can be organized in multiple projects with a distinct set of members and their respective roles in that project. Each project can be individually configured with regards to the enabled features, which are called *Modules* in OpenProject. This distinction between projects provides you with a lot of flexibility to set up your work, and control what users are allowed to collaborate in each indivudal project.
Both the community edition and enterprise edition allows you to create an unlimited number of projects to separate your work. To learn more about the creation and management of projects within OpenProject, [please visit our separate section on projects](projects/).
