Don't make this mistake in your developer tutorial

"Hello World" doesn't cut it for getting developers up and running with your tech. Here's why and how you can fix it and get more developers onboarded quickly and easily.
If you are building a developer platform, SDK, or API...it is essential to get new developers onboarded as quickly as possible. This is is essential for any developer tool...whether open source, gaming, cloud, infrastructure, AI, ML, scientific, or otherwise.
Too many developer tools provide a "Hello World" tutorial and it just doesn't work. Why?
* It shows a tiny slice of why your dev tool is so awesome
* It doesn't solve an actual problem for the developer working through the tutorial
In this video I walk through step-by-step instructions for how to fix this by creating a developer tutorial that gets your audience to a meaningful outcome that is useful to them.
This video will be helpful for founders, startups, community managers, developer relations (devrel), CTO, CEO, CMO, and others.
