# In-the-Field Tutorial Creation Skill ## Purpose This Skill provides comprehensive guidance for creating **in-the-field tutorials** - production implementation guides designed for developers with foundational knowledge ready to apply concepts in production environments using industry-standard frameworks and enterprise patterns. **When to use this Skill:** - Creating in-the-field tutorials for programming languages - Writing production-ready code with framework integration - Designing standard library→framework progression guides - Teaching enterprise patterns and production practices - Targeting experienced developers with by-example/by-concept foundation ## Core Concepts ### What is In-the-Field? **In-the-field tutorials** are production implementation guides that achieve production readiness through 20-40 guides covering real-world scenarios with standard library→framework progression. **NOT a replacement for**: - By-example (which provides 95% language coverage through code-first examples) - By-concept (which provides narrative explanations of fundamentals) - Quick Start (which is 5-30% coverage touchpoints) **Target Audience**: - **Developers with foundation**: Completed by-example and/or by-concept - **Ready for production**: Need to apply concepts in real systems - **Framework selection**: Want informed decisions about tools - **Enterprise patterns**: Need industry-standard practices ### Standard Library First Principle **CRITICAL**: In-the-field tutorials
