Community Edition Tutorial¶
Tutorial in production — available soon
The course structure is public, but its videos, final walkthroughs and verified sample files are still being prepared. They will be released here progressively.
This cumulative tutorial starts with installation and builds one synthetic paper-industry scenario through Demand and Supply Planning. Follow the episodes in order: every page declares its starting checkpoint, the objects it creates, what must not exist yet, and the validation required before continuing.
When published, each episode page will contain:
- the video and chapter guide;
- a written summary of the demonstrated workflow;
- the exact Excel files used in that episode;
- a versioned ZIP bundle with a manifest and SHA-256 checksums;
- an explicit next checkpoint.
