Hi@akhtar,

A Kubernetes namespace provides a mechanism to scope resources in a cluster. In OpenShift, a project is a Kubernetes namespace with additional annotations. You can use the below command to create a namespace/project in Openshift.

$ oc new-project <project_name>

Here oc is a program(Openshift client) that will connect to Minishift cluster and perform the task.
