<ul>
<li> To load an ASDF system:
<ul>
<li> Load ASDF itself into your Lisp image, using
<code>(require &quot;asdf&quot;)</code>.
Check that you have a recent version using <code>(asdf:asdf-version)</code>.
For more details, or if any of the above fails, see <a href="Loading-ASDF.html">Loading ASDF</a>.
</li><li> Make sure software is installed where ASDF can find it.
The simplest way is to put all your Lisp code in subdirectories of
<samp>~/common-lisp/</samp> (starting with ASDF 3.1.2),
or <samp>~/.local/share/common-lisp/source/</samp>
(for ASDF 2 and later, or if you want to keep source in a hidden directory).
For more details, see <a href="Configuring-ASDF-to-find-your-systems.html">Configuring ASDF to find your systems</a>.
</li><li> Load your system with <code>(asdf:load-system &quot;<var>my-system</var>&quot;)</code>.
See <a href="Using-ASDF.html">Using ASDF</a>.
</li></ul>
</li><li> To make your own ASDF system:
<ul>
<li> As above, load and configure ASDF.
</li><li> Make a new directory for your system, <code><var>my-system</var>/</code>,
again in a location where ASDF can find it.
All else being equal, the easiest location is probably
<samp>~/common-lisp/my-system/</samp>.
See <a href="Configuring-ASDF-to-find-your-systems.html">Configuring ASDF to find your systems</a>.
</li><li> Create an ASDF system definition listing the dependencies of
your system, its components, and their interdependencies,
and put it in <samp><var>my-system</var>.asd</samp>.
This file must have the same name as your system, all lowercase.
See <a href="Defining-systems-with-defsystem.html">Defining systems with defsystem</a>.
</li><li> Use <code>(asdf:load-system &quot;<var>my-system</var>&quot;)</code>
to make sure it&rsquo;s all working properly. See <a href="Using-ASDF.html">Using ASDF</a>.
</li></ul>
