# GitLab Web Editor
|
||
|
|
||
|
In GitLab you can create new files and edit existing files using our web editor.
|
||
|
This is especially useful if you don't have access to a command line or you just want to do a quick fix.
|
||
|
You can easily access the web editor, depending on the context.
|
||
|
Let's start from newly created project.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Click on `Add a file`
|
||
|
to create the first file and open it in the web editor.

|
||
|
The file will be saved to the repository.

You can edit any text file in a repository by pressing the edit button, when
|
||
|
viewing the file.

Editing a file is almost the same as creating a new file,
|
||
|
with as addition the ability to preview your changes in a separate tab. Also you can save your change to another branch by filling out field `branch`
