Hi David,
glad to read there was a way, even though it seems to odd/unnecessary to both of us.
See you soon!

So I just created my own project and I was able to go further. I may have other questions now that I'm in the project. Thanks for the support.

Wow, they've really become annoying to new users... :-/ Is there no way to get around that dialog from the screenshot? What should be happening there is that when you click on 'Edit' for a file in the repo, is that it should ask you whether you want to create a fork, and then do that for you, then open the editor. As I don't get to see that dialog... it's difficult for me to know how to dismiss it. You shouldn't need to import anything. I'm not sure whether it needs that group name, it didn't need anything like that for me. The 30 days free trial should not be an issue, see screenshot.
