Tutorials vs shipping product

[kd7eir]

I've noticed that some of the tutorials do not match up with what is actually shipped. For instance, the WiFi alarm clock tutorial shows an entirely different TFT board than is shown on the TFT ordering page.

Also, All of the tutorials that I have looked at do not include the code.

I'm just trying to grasp the concept of a tutorial that seems to be disassociated with the products that they are claiming to be tutoring about.

Can anyone offer any insight into this?

Do you mean the Oak Beta WiFi Alarm Clock Shield tutorial as opposed to the Oak TFT Color LCD Shield store page? If so, that is because the tutorial is not for that board! It is for a board that was only available to the beta backers unless I'm mistaken. The corresponding tutorial for that store page is the Oak TFT Shield Kit Tutorial wiki page. And yes, some of the examples are missing code as whoever wrote that tute didn't go any further... but some also state to look at the built-in examples provided with the Oak's Arduino core. It is a work-in-progress... just need enough people who don't get bored easily!

Thanks for clarifying that and pointing me in the right direction.
