Please note that this tutorial is undergoing constant review and that if there isn't information that you need yet, it will come in the future.

(Because everything under this is incomprehensible ranting)
(I'm reworking the Introduction right now, if you are not native to English you might struggle reading this)

More buttons to be coming soon.
