Tutorial

First-user path, power-user depth

Learn Knowton by building a topic that acts like a small world.

This tutorial follows the real creator loop: choose a topic, add scenes, place objects, connect backstage logic, preview the learner experience, then publish or remix with the community.

Topic maker mental model

Modules are capabilities. Objects are what you place.

Scenes are stages/pages
Objects are draggable instances
Backstage connects behavior
Preview shows the learner world

Creator tutorial

Six steps to the core loop

save -> preview -> publish

Step 01

Choose a starting shape

Start from a template, an example topic, or a blank studio. Beginners get a guided path; power users can jump straight into controls.

Create topic

Step 02

Break it into scenes

Scenes work like stages, pages, tabs, wiki documents, game levels, or visual lesson screens inside one topic.

Open topics

Step 03

Place objects freely

Drag, resize, recolor, reshape, duplicate, layer, group, and tune objects without treating modules as finished mini-sites.

Open studio

Step 04

Connect the backstage

Use line-coding, generated block rows, or safe simulated code drafts over the same canonical topic program.

Try backstage

Step 05

Preview the learner flow

Check whether the topic feels like a website, game, wiki, dynamic lesson, or mixed experience before publishing.

Open Learn

Step 06

Publish and remix

Share public topics, explore creators, bookmark useful work, and eventually publish reusable modules in the marketplace.
