Create your adapter solution

Use the adapter template to generate a new adapter solution. The template provides the foundational components required to build, configure, test, and run an adapter on the Adapter Framework.

1. Generate an adapter projects using `dotnet new` from the published Adapter.Template NuGet package.

   ```bash

   # One-time: install the template

   dotnet new install Adapter.Template --nuget-source "https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json"

   # Navigate to where you want your solution created, then:

   dotnet new AdapterTemplate --param:name "YourAdapterName"

   ```

2. Open the generated project folder in Visual Studio Code or an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) of your choice.

3. Run dotnet build in the integrated terminal to confirm the adapter project runs successfully with no errors.
