Question about Forge

Hello,

I just created a droplet on Digital Ocean. So when I login into Forge I can select a Server Size (example: 512MB RAM - 1 CPU Core - 20GB SSD - $0.007 / Hour - $5 / Month).

So if I select that will it use the one that I already have at digital ocean? Or will it create another one?

Thanks

What Forge does, is that he will take care of install all the stuff that your server need for run laravel, that's mean that he will make a new droplet and install everything that you need. I think that you can't use droplets that you manually make on Digital Ocean. :)
