Authoring Content

A tutorial consists of parts, chapters, and lessons. For example:

• Part 1: Basics of Vite
  • Chapter 1: Introduction
    • Lesson 1: Welcome!
    • Lesson 2: Why Vite?
    • …
  • Chapter 2: Your first Vite project
• Part 2: CLI
  • …

Your content is organized into lessons, with chapters and parts providing a structure and defining common metadata for these lessons.

Here’s an example of how it would look like in src/content/tutorial:

tutorial
├── 1-basics-of-vite
│   ├── 1-introduction
│   │   ├── 1-welcome
│   │   │   ├── content.md    # The content of your lesson
│   │   │   ├── _files        # Initial set of files
│   │   │   │   └── ...
│   │   │   └── _solution     # Solution of the lesson
│   │   │       └── ...
│   │   ├── 2-why-vite
│   │   │   ├── content.md
│   │   │   └── _files
│   │   │       └── ...
│   │   └── meta.md           # Metadata for the chapter
│   └── meta.md               # Metadata for the part
├── 2-advanced
│   ├── ...
│   └── meta.md
└── meta.md                   # Metadata for the tutorial

Supported Content Formats

Content can be either written as Markdown (.md) files or using MDX (.mdx). Files have a Front Matter at the top that contains the metadata and everything that comes after is the content of your lesson.

Example

---
type: lesson
title: Welcome!
---

# Welcome to TutorialKit!

In this tutorial we'll walk you through how to setup your environment to
write your first tutorial 🤩

The metadata file (meta.md) of parts, chapters, and lessons do not contain any content. It only contains the Front Matter for configuration.

Metadata

Here is an overview of the properties that can be used as part of the Front Matter:

Property	Required	Type	Inherited	Description
type	✅	part | chapter | lesson	❌	The type of the metadata.
title	✅	string	❌	The title of the part, chapter, or lesson.
slug		string	❌	Let’s you customize the URL pathname which is /:partSlug/:chapterSlug/:lessonSlug.
previews		Preview[]	✅	Configure which ports should be used for the previews. If not specified, the lowest port will be used.
autoReload		boolean	✅	Navigating to a lesson that specifies autoReload will always reload the preview. This is typically only needed if your server does not support HMR.
prepareCommands		Command[]	✅	List of commands to execute sequentially. They are typically used to install dependencies or to run scripts.
mainCommand		Command	✅	The main command to be executed. This command will run after the prepareCommands.

A Command has the following shape:

string | [command: string, title: string] | { command: string, title: string }

The title is used as part of the boot screen (see UI Structure).

A Preview has the following shape:

string | [port: number, title: string] | { port: number, title: string }

In most cases, metadata is inherited. For example, if you specify a mainCommand on a chapter without specifying it on any of its lessons, each lesson will use the mainCommand from its respective chapter. This extends to chapter and parts as well.
