1.2. Tutorial Files

This tutorial includes the following design example organized into directories that correspond with the flow (Core or Root partition reuse) and role (Developer or Consumer).

Figure 2. Tutorial Directory Structure

The Completed directories contain the final versions of all files required to complete that tutorial module. You can use the files in Completed directories to bypass tutorial steps, or skip to the final step of the tutorial module. The Scripts directories contain bash scripts and files to restore the single project.

  • To restore all of the tutorial files to the original run the following from the project directory:
    ./restoreall.sh
  • To restore a single project, run the following from the Consumer or Developer directory:
    Script/restore.sh
