TutLab

Tutlab provides a guided, tutorial, hands-on coding experience by rendering content from markdown (.md files) on github repository.
It takes away the hazzle of having to build the codelab template and bother about different styling and designs, allowing tutors to focus on creating a rich content only.
It builds off of .

on Github Repo produces this codelab

Steps on Setting up a Tut Lab Project

1. Create a Github repo
2. Create a folder to house your codelab post and manifest file as seen
3. create manifest.josn
4. push .md files content

Manifest.json - How it Works

{
  "title": "Building Smaller Apks",
  "home":"http://belvi.xyz",
  "feedback_link": "http://belvi.xyz",
  "showLastUpdate": false,
  "flavor":"github",
  "steps": [
    "introduction",
    "using gradle",
  ],
  "introduction": {
    "label": "Getting started Shrinking Apk Size."
  },
  "using gradle": {
    "label": "Updating gradle."
  }
}

Key	function
title	the title of the article
feedback_link	link to be redirect to for codelab feedback
showLastUpdate	if true, last update time of the article is displayed
home	where it should redirect to after a user finish a codelab session
flavor	your preferred flavor for styling mardown file ('github' or 'vanilla' or 'original')
steps	array of .md file names. this should be arranged in the order you want the files to be rendered
label	lable of the step referenced in steps array

YOUR CODE LAB LINK

To share with audience, here's the pattern to your codelab link.

http://opentutlab.appspot.com/posts/YOUR_GIT_USERNAME/CODELAB_REPO_NAME/PATH_TO_CODELAB_MANIFEST_FILES_AND_FILES

Using

BASE_URL = http://opentutlab.appspot.com/posts/
MY_GIT_USERNAME = kigsmentor
CODELAB_REPO_NAME = codelab
PATH_TO_CODELAB_MANIFEST_FILES_AND_FILES = buildingsmallerapk

knowing this, I can share my codelab as : http://opentutlab.appspot.com/posts/kingsmentor/codelab/buildingsmallerapk
