Guided Tutorials 2.0 outline:
- Beginner User Level:
- Very brief intro to GR, SDR, DSP, i.e. this page- Guided Tutorial Introduction. We should reference to external sources for DSP/SDR background for those who need more
- Intro to GR usage- GRC and flowgraphs, i.e. this page- Guided Tutorial GRC
- Understanding sample rate, and how hardware and decimation/interpolation blocks impact it. So Guided Tutorial Hardware Considerations and Guided Tutorial Extras Sample Rates and Barry's new writeup, but we can probably condense it down
- Brief intro to PMTs, stream tags, and messaging passing (refer to Usage Manual for more info), i.e. this page- Guided Tutorial Programming Topics
- Example practical usage of GR- PSK Demodulation, i.e. this page- Guided Tutorial PSK Demodulation
- Intermediate User Level:
- Understanding a flowgraph's python code, content can come from Guided Tutorial GNU Radio in Python
- Writing your own block (using Embedded Python Block), content can come from Guided Tutorial GNU Radio in Python and elsewhere
- Writing the YAML/XML file for a block
- Out of Tree modules, should cover creation/installation and both Python and C++ blocks (but not writing them blocks themselves)
- Writing blocks in C++
- Expert User Level:
- Writing flowgraphs in C++ (new to 3.8)
- Volk- what it does, why it rocks, how to write new kernels
- Working with ALSA and Pulse Audio
- (any of the other really niche topics we already have tutorials for, i.e. the order isn't going to mean much)
- Developer Level:
- Source level debugging C++ OOT modules with Visual Studio Code, see UsingVSCode
- Building and Source level debugging C++ OOT modules with Eclipse, see UsingEclipse
- Using Git with GNU Radio, see DevelopingWithGit
- (anything else developer centric)
