+### Getting started with workspaces
+
+You may automate the required steps to define a new workspace using
+[npm init](/commands/npm-init). For example in a project that already has a
+`package.json` defined you can run:
+
+```
+npm init -w ./packages/a
+```
+
+This command will create the missing folders and a new `package.json`
+file (if needed) while also making sure to properly configure the
+`"workspaces"` property of your root project `package.json`.
+
+### Adding dependencies to a workspace
+
+It's possible to directly add/remove/update dependencies of your workspaces
+using the [`workspace` config](/using-npm/config#workspace).
+
+For example, assuming the following structure:
+
+```
+.
++-- package.json
+`-- packages
+   +-- a
+   |   `-- package.json
+   `-- b
+       `-- package.json
+```
+
+If you want to add a dependency named `abbrev` from the registry as a
+dependency of your workspace **a**, you may use the workspace config to tell
+the npm installer that package should be added as a dependency of the provided
+workspace:
+
+```
+npm install abbrev -w a
+```
+
+Note: other installing commands such as `uninstall`, `ci`, etc will also
+respect the provided `workspace` configuration.
