Tutorials

Learning-oriented walkthroughs. Read these first if you're new to helmdeck — each one takes you from zero to a working setup with explicit steps and expected outputs.

Available tutorials

• Install helmdeck (CLI walkthrough) — from git clone to a running stack with the admin password printed. ~10 minutes.
• Configure helmdeck via the Management UI — panel-by-panel tour of the post-install steps every operator needs.
• Pack demo playbook — 20 copy-pasteable prompts that exercise every shipped capability pack against a live install. Use it after the install steps to verify your environment.

What goes here

Tutorials are learning-oriented. They are the most prescriptive of the four documentation modes:

• They have a clear start and end.
• The reader follows the steps without making decisions.
• The goal is competence-by-doing, not exhaustive coverage.

If you want a recipe for a specific problem, see How-to guides. If you want to look up a pack contract, see Reference. If you want to understand why helmdeck is shaped the way it is, see Explanation.
