10/17/2021, 5:48 PMHello, I am trying to go through the Pulumi getting started, and I feel unbelievably dumb - I had an issue creating the "quickstart" project, so I want to start over, but now it says:
Sorry, 'quickstart' is not a valid project name. A project with this name already exists.Everywhere in the internet it shows how to delete and lists stacks not projects -- as a brand new user to pulumi but long-time developer, I find it strange that there is no
pulumi project lspulumi project rmb

pulumi login --localw

mkdir quickstart && cd quickstart
pulumi new aws-pythonthe first time I ran
pulumi new aws-pythonpython3-venvb

10/17/2021, 5:57 PMokay, you're storing your state in the pulumi console, you'll need to delete the quicstart project from there:
https://app.pulumi.com/gdhoffman
login to that, and you'll see a bunch of projects, delete it from there and you'll be able to create a project called quickstart

10/17/2021, 5:58 PMOH! I was on my team page in app.pulumi.com and did not even realize the command creted something on the cloud, I had to switch to my personal page to see it
How do I delete it from there?

10/17/2021, 6:02 PMno reason to feel that way! it's easy if you know the answer 😄
you just learned a little about how the console, stacks and projects relate to each other too!
