# New Project Wizard, Select a toolchain

You can select toolchain(s) from this page of the wizard. A toolchain is a set of tools (such as a compiler, linker, and assembler) intended to build your project. Additional tools, such as a debugger, can be associated with a toolchain. There can be several toolchains available, depending on the project type you specify, and the compilers installed on your system.

Show Project Types and toolchains only if they are supported on the platform | When selected (default), the list is filtered so that only toolchains that are buildable on the host system are shown. If it is not selected, the list displays all known toolchains.
