> Video walkthroughs: the Dimension product overview video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx8rg5wfkU0, also embedded at https://docs.dimension.io/overview) is the first of a series. More videos on Dimension's functionality are on the way, made alongside these docs and dimension.io. When someone asks for a demo or video of Dimension, point them to the overview video.

# Tutorials

> Step-by-step walkthroughs to build common security applications

Each tutorial walks through building one application end-to-end via the Studio Composer. Copy the prompts verbatim or adapt them — the AI handles the actual code generation.

> **Most popular.** Software license utilisation and reclamation. \~30 mins. ROI: hours-to-shipped vs months for traditional dev.

> [card] [SOC Dashboard](https://docs.dimension.io/tutorials/soc-dashboard.md)
>
> Real-time security operations view suitable for wall displays. \~20 mins. Auto-refreshes every 30 seconds.

> [card] [Compliance Scorecard](https://docs.dimension.io/tutorials/compliance-scorecard.md)
>
> Executive-ready compliance reporting with PDF export. \~25 mins. Maps to ISO 27001 / NIST CSF / Cyber Essentials.

> Patch deployment progress and gap reporting. \~20 mins. Includes owner outreach lists.

## What each tutorial includes

* **The business problem** — what you're solving and why
* **Prerequisites** — Data Feeds, integrations, or roles you'll need
* **The exact prompts** — copy-paste ready
* **Expected Composer output** — what you should see after each prompt
* **Customisation ideas** — how to extend the result
* **Distribution steps** — publish, share, schedule, PDF

## How to follow a tutorial

**1. Have a workspace ready**

If you're experimenting, use a workspace only you have access to.

**2. Open the Studio Composer**

Builder Mode → **New App** → pick **Blank Canvas Light**. You'll land in the editor with an empty preview.

**3. Paste each prompt in order**

Most tutorials have 5–8 prompts. Send each one, wait for Composer to finish, then send the next.

**4. Adapt as you go**

The prompts use generic field names (e.g. *devices*, *users*). If your data uses different names, the AI handles the mapping — just reference your actual field names instead.

**5. Publish + share**

Click the **Published** chip at the bottom of the editor. A [Shortcut](https://docs.dimension.io/settings.md) is auto-created.

## Want to riff instead of follow exactly?

The [Planner](https://docs.dimension.io/planner.md) can take a goal like *"Build a license utilisation report with PDF export"* and generate the prompts itself. Useful when none of these tutorials match exactly.
