# Local Spaces

Creating Local Spaces

You create Local Spaces using the PairSpaces CLI.

## Using the PairSpaces CLI

Use `pair spaces create` to create a Local Space.

### Linux, macOS, and Windows (WSL)

```sh
export PS_SPACE_KEY=ps_live_7ATuLopVXIx_...
./pair spaces create

Your new Space is 'dynamic-stark'.

Your team can connect to your Space now. Use Ctrl-C to close the connection.
```

### Windows PowerShell

```powershell
PowerShell/CMD does not support hosting Spaces from Windows.
```
