-Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial - Getting started with Catalyst
+Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial - Catalyst Tutorial: Overview
 
 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-This document aims to get you up and running with Catalyst.
+The Catalyst framework is a flexible and comprehensive environment for
+quickly building high-functionality web applications.  This tutorial is
+designed to provide a rapid introduction to its basics and its most
+commonly used features while focusing on real-world best practices.
 
-NOTE: THIS DOCUMENT IS STILL VERY MUCH AT AN ALPHA STAGE.
-
-Please send comments, corrections and suggestions for improvements to
-A.Ford@ford-mason.co.uk
+The tutorial is divided into the following sections:

-=head2 Installation
+=item *
 
-The first step is to install Catalyst, and the simplest way to do this is to
-install the Catalyst bundle from CPAN:
+L<Introduction|Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial::Intro>
 
-    $ perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::Catalyst'
+=item * 
 
-This will retrieve Catalyst and a number of useful extensions and install them
-for you.
+L<Catalyst Basics|Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial::CatalystBasics>
 
+=item * 
 
-=head2 Setting up your application
+L<Basic CRUD|Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial::BasicCRUD>
 
-Catalyst includes a helper script, C<catalyst.pl>, that will set up a skeleton
-application for you:
+=item * 
 
-    $ catalyst.pl My::App
-    created "My-App"
-    created "My-App/script"
-    created "My-App/lib"
-    created "My-App/root"
-    created "My-App/t"
-    created "My-App/t/m"
-    created "My-App/t/v"
-    created "My-App/t/c"
-    created "My-App/lib/My/App"
-    created "My-App/lib/My/App/M"
-    created "My-App/lib/My/App/V"
-    created "My-App/lib/My/App/C"
-    created "My-App/lib/My/App.pm"

-=head2 Testing out the sample application
+L<Testing|Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial::Testing>
 
-You can test out your new application by running the server script that
-catalyst provides:
+=item * 
 
-    $ cd My-App
-    $ script/server.pl 
-    [Sun Mar 20 12:31:18 2005] [catalyst] [debug] Debug messages enabled

-    [Sun Mar 20 12:31:18 2005] [catalyst] [info] My::App powered by Catalyst 4.26
-    [Sun Mar 20 12:31:18 2005] [catalyst] [debug] "My::App" defined "!default" as "CODE(0x83fd570)"
-    You can connect to your server at http://localhost:3000
+L<Advanced CRUD|Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial::AdvancedCRUD>
 
-The server is now waiting for you to make requests of it.  Try using telnet to
-manually make a simple GET request of the server (when telnet responds with
-"Escape character is '^]'.", type "GET / HTTP/1.0" and hit return twice):
+=item * 
 
-    $ telnet localhost 3000
-    Trying 127.0.0.1...
-    Connected to localhost.
-    Escape character is '^]'.
-    GET / HTTP/1.0
-    
-    HTTP/1.0 200
-    Server: Catalyst/4.26
-    Status: 200
-    Date: Sun, 20 Mar 2005 12:31:55 GMT

-    Congratulations, My::App is on Catalyst!
-    Connection closed by foreign host.

-More trace messages will appear in the original terminal window:
+A tarball of the final application is available at
+C<to_be_compled_in_final_version>.

+=head1 Detailed Table Of Contents
 
-The server will continue running until you interrupt it.
+=head2 Part 1: Introduction
 
-The application can also be tested from the command line using the generated
-helper script, C<script/test.pl>.

-=head2 Getting your application invoked
+VERSIONS AND CONVENTIONS USED IN THIS TUTORIAL
 
-Catalyst applications are intended to be run from mod_perl, but can also be
-run as CGI scripts.  Running under mod_perl gives better performance, but for
-development purposes you may want to run your application as a CGI script,
-especially as each changes to your application code take effect under CGI
-without having to restart the web server.
+=item *
 
-To run from mod_perl you need to add something like this to your Apache
-configuration file:
+CATALYST INSTALLATION
 
-    <Location /myapp>
-        SetHandler  perl-script
-        PerlHandler MyApp
-    </Location>
+=item *
 
-To run as a CGI script you need a wrapper script like:
+DATABASES
 
-    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
+=item *
 
-    use strict;
-    use lib '/path/to/MyApp/lib';
-    use MyApp;
+WHERE TO GET WORKING CODE
 
-    MyApp->run;
+=back
 
-Catalyst outputs a complete HTTP response, which is not what is expected of a
-CGI script.  You need to configure the script as a so-called "Non-parsed
-Headers" script for it to function properly.  To do this in Apache just name
-the script starting with C<nph->.
 
+=head2 Part 2: Catalyst Application Development Basics
 
+=over 4
 
+=item *
 
-=head2 Extending the generated code
+CREATE A CATALYST PROJECT
 
-The generated application code looks like this:
+=item *
 
-    package My::App;
+CREATE A SQLITE DATABASE
 
-    use strict;
-    use Catalyst qw/-Debug/;
+=item *
 
-    our $VERSION = '0.01';
+EDIT THE LIST OF CATALYST PLUGINS
 
-    My::App->config(
-	name => 'My::App',
-	root => '/home/andrew/My-App/root',
-    );
+=item *
 
-    My::App->action(
-	'!default' => sub {
-	    my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
-	    $c->res->output('Congratulations, My::App is on Catalyst!');
-	},
-    );
+DATABASE ACCESS WITH DBIx::Class
 
-    1;
+=item *
 
+Create a DBIC Schema File
 
-You can start extending the application by adding new actions:
+=item *
 
-    My::App->action(
-        'test1' => sub {
-	    my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
-	    $c->res->output('In a new test action #1');
-	},
-        'test1' => sub {
-	    my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
-	    $c->res->output('In a new test action #1');
-	},
-	'!default' => sub {
-	    my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
-	    $c->res->output('Congratulations, My::App is on Catalyst!');
-	},
-    );
