Easier way to create custom fields

Is there an easier way to create custom fields (such as uploading a csv) rather than having to create each custom field independently? Im new to developing on this platform so any help would be greatly appreciated!

You can create custom objects and custom fields through the Force.com IDE. Ultimately you configure the custom object and its custom fields as XML in the IDE , when you hit Save, the Force.com IDE updates the custom object in your salesforce environment accordingly. 

 

Also, check out the metadata API for more info:
