+### Creating you own package
+
+In many situations is useful to create your own package, for instance, when working with a large code base, when you want to reduce compilation latency using [`Revise.jl`](https://github.com/timholy/Revise.jl),
+or if you want to eventually [register your package](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/Registrator.jl) and share it with others.
+
+The simplest way of generating a package (called `MyPackage`) is as follows. Open Julia go to package mode and type
+
+```julia
+(@v1.10) pkg> generate MyPackage
+```
+
+This will crate a minimal package consisting of a new folder `MyPackage` with two files:
+
+* `MyPackage/Project.toml`: Project file defining the direct dependencies of your package.
+* `MyPackage/src/MyPackage.jl`: Main source file of your package. You can split your code in several files if needed, and include them in the package main file using function `include`.
+
+!!! tip
+    This approach only generates a very minimal package. To create a more sophisticated package skeleton (including unit testing, code coverage, readme file, licence, etc.) use
+    [`PkgTemplates.jl`](https://github.com/JuliaCI/PkgTemplates.jl) or [`BestieTemplate.jl`](https://github.com/abelsiqueira/BestieTemplate.jl). The later one is developed in Amsterdam at the
+    [Netherlands eScience Center](https://www.esciencecenter.nl/).
+
+You can add dependencies to the package by activating the `MyPackage` folder in package mode and adding new dependencies as always:
+
+```julia
+(@v1.10) pkg> activate MyPackage
+(MyPackage) pkg> add MPI
+```
+
+This will add MPI to your package dependencies.
+
+### Using your own package
+
+To use your package you first need to add it to a package environment of your choice. This is done with `develop path/to/the/package/folder` in package mode. For instance:
+
+```julia
+(@v1.10) pkg> develop MyPackage
+```
+
+!!! note
+    You do not need to "develop" your package if you activated the package folder `MyPackage`.
+
+Now, we can go back to standard Julia mode and use it as any other package:
+
+```julia
+using MyPackage
+MyPackage.greet()
+```
+
+Here, we just called the example function defined in `MyPackage/src/MyPackage.jl`.
