Abstract

Methods and computer-readable media provide for the creation of a basic input/output system (BIOS) project. Embodiments include a project creation wizard that guides a user through the project creation process. The project creation wizard utilizes a script file that includes entries corresponding to each category of BIOS component that should be included within a given project. Upon receiving a project type indicator from the user, the project creation wizard locates a corresponding script file and parses through each entry of the script file, systematically utilizing the corresponding information to search for applicable BIOS components and to allow or reject user selections of the located BIOS components according to the data within the script file entry. The BIOS components that are selected according to the script file data are copied to a designated location to create a BIOS project file.
