When i am trying to create new design, a new folder with name "openlane" is getting created. Any solution how to rectify this? And

And any source which i can follow to create a new design in WSL.

add to design option need to be set or the path needs to be absolute

The official documentation works for WSL.

Also see my pull request with WSL related changes

Thank you,
But can you ellaborate more on this?
i tried giving complete path while adding new design but ended up with same result

did you try setting the path to abolute? Show command, the error and the folder where you are trying to create the design

here i gave designs/inverter_test but the new design was created inside /OpenLane/openlane folder that too without src folder in it

In this case as well. And src is not getting generated automatically and everytime i have to type sudo command to access the /OpenLane/openlane folder.

1. designs/inverter_test is not an absolute path. <https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001708.htm>
2. Delete the folders before running the command to make sure it is the correct folder

Again, if you want to put it in /OpenLane/designs then add -add_to_designs and use the name of design (e.g. new_inverter_test).

```./flow.tcl -design new_inverter_test -init_design_config -add_to_designs```


Please read this page: <https://openlane.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage/designs.html>

"And src is not getting generated automatically"

As documentation suggests src/ folder is created by user. This is because the source might not be available in the src/ folder but might be placed somewhere else. As long as the VERILOG_FILES is set to correct value

"i have to type sudo command to access the /OpenLane/openlane folder."

You ran `sudo make mount`. This is incorrect. The make mount needs to be ran using `make mount` command

If you get permission error:

```docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post "<http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.24/containers/create>": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied.
See 'docker run --help'.```
with make mount then you skipped following step: <https://openlane.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started/installation.html#step-2-making-docker-available-without-root>

Please do not follow outdated documentation. Can you post the docs you are trying to follow?

Thank you very much, now i am able to edit without sudo command as well able as to add new_design to design folder.
Followed this to add new design:- <https://openlane-docs.readthedocs.io/en/rtd-develop/designs/README.html>
And this to install openlane:- <https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenLane>
From now on will try to follow latest documents.
