What do you look for in tech tutorials? lots of examples, one that has a text editor built in, etc.

What do I look for in tutorials?

1. Easy to read, understand.
2. Plenty of examples explaining each step.
3. Links to resources that can help me further after reading the tutorial.

I'm not sure what a built in text editor would do... What were you planning it for?

Hope that helps.

I think,tutorial should be easy to understand,it's explain with example and step by step,it should be clear

I think tutorials must be specific, taking into consideration the needs of different types of readers-- from newbies to experts. Therefore, it is flexible and it includes user-friendly features like a glossary of terms. And it is spliced appropriately for users who may only need a portion of knowledge included in the tutorial.

I too agree with Ally.
