# How it Works

-When Newt sees a directory tree that contains a "project.yml" file, it recognizes it as the base directory of a project, and automatically builds a package tree. It can also recognize two important package directories in the package tree - "apps" and "targets", and use them to recursively resolve dependencies and build correct images for specified targets.
