Guides and Tutorials
The function of the guides and tutorial pages that are linked from an onboarding page is to fulfill the expectation of learning and to design an experience that will be as close as possible to the learning requirements of key audience segments. In this post, we will explore how the sites we reviewed included guides and tutorials in their information architecture, we’ll look at what they covered, and finish with listing what could help to maximize their effectiveness.
