# Get Started

# Introduction

As this is a package extension, if you are new to `{admiral}` then the best place to first start reading would be the Get Started page. This extension package follows the same main idea and conventions, and re-uses many functions from `{admiral}`, so it is important to thoroughly understand these to be able to use `{admiralpeds}`.

# Creating Pediatrics ADaM Datasets

You can see guidance on how to create select ADaMs for pediatric clinical trials by reading our vignettes under the User Guides section of this site.

`{admiralpeds}` also provides template R scripts as a starting point. They can be created by calling `use_ad_template()` from `{admiral}`, e.g.,

    library(admiral)

    use_ad_template(
      adam_name = "advs",
      save_path = "./ad_advs.R",
      package = "admiralpeds"
    )

A list of all available templates can be obtained by `list_all_templates()` from `{admiral}`:

    list_all_templates(package = "admiralpeds")
