# Tutorials
In addition to the basic getting started guides, we offer tutorials that aim to
show how you can use Material for MkDocs in different use cases. In contrast to
the getting started guides or the reference documentation, the tutorials show
the breadth of features available in Material for MkDocs but also within
the wider MkDocs ecosystem.
The tutorials guide you through worked examples, so by following them you should
gain not only an understanding of how to use Material for MkDocs, but also
a template for your own projects. For convenience, these templates are also
available as template repositories on GitHub.
The tutorials assume that you have installed either the [public version] or the
[Insiders edition] of Material for MkDocs and that you have worked through the
[creating your site] setup guide.
Note that where the features we use require the Insiders edition, we mark these
with the heart icon: <!-- md:sponsors --> If you are using the public version
then you can skip these steps. Sometimes there will be ways of achieving the
same goal that differ between the public version and the Insider edition. In
that case, we will show them in a tabbed view so you can see one or the other.
[public version]: ../getting-started.md
[Insiders edition]: ../insiders/getting-started.md
[creating your site]: ../creating-your-site.md
!!! note "Feedback wanted!"
The tutorials are a recent addition to our documentation and we are still
working out what shape they should have in the end. Please [provide any
feedback you might have in this discussion thread].
Note, however, that suggestions should be specific and feasible. We want to
focus on creating more content at the moment, instead of developing a
specific styling or behaviour for the tutorials. If there are worthwhile
improvements that we can make through simple customization then we are happy
to consider those.
