By [tutorials](https://diataxis.fr/tutorials/) we mean *lessons* as described in the [Diátaxis framework for technical documentation](https://diataxis.fr), and recommend becoming familiar with Diátaxis before proceeding.
Especially note [the difference between tutorials and guides](https://diataxis.fr/tutorials-how-to/).
