+# Tutorial Outline
+
+## 01
+
+* Minimum working example
+* Only 1-to-1 sequential wiring
+
+## 02
+
+* Parameters for connectors and cables
+* Auto-calculate AWG from mm2
+* Non-sequential wiring
+
+## 03
+
+* Connector pinouts
+  * Pincount implicit in pinout
+* Cable color codes
+* Cable shielding, shield wiring
+* Templates
+
+## 04
+
+* Overriding template parameters
+* American standards: AWG gauge and IEC colors
+* Linear daisy-chain
+
+## 05
+
+* Ferrules
+* Wire bundles
+  * Internally treated as cables
+  * Different treatment in BOM
+* Custom colors
+
+## 06
+
+* Custom ferrules
+  * Allows attaching more than one wire to a ferrule
+
+## To do
+
+* Daisychain
+  * zig-zag
+* Connection types
+  * con-cbl-con
+  * con-cbl
+  * cbl-con
+  * fer-cbl
+  * cbl-fer
+* Custom color codes
+  * Looping
+  * Clipping
+* (Merging multiple templates)
