+The Tutorial Dataset
+=======================================
+
+Our tutorials focus on converting extracellular electrophysiology data in the SpikeGLX and Phy formats.
+To get you started as quickly as possible, we’ve created a way to generate this Neuropixel-like dataset at the click of a button!
+
+.. note::
+  The **SpikeGLX** data format stores electrophysiology recordings
+  The **Phy** data format stores spike sorting results.
+
+Navigate to the **Settings** page using the main sidebar and initiate the dataset generation
+by pressing the Generate button in the top-right corner.
+
+This dataset will be organized in the following way:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    dataset/

+Now you’re ready to start your first conversion using the NWB GUIDE!

+Tutorials
+=======================================
+The NWB Graphical User Interface for Data Entry (GUIDE) is a desktop tool for converting neurophysiological data
+to the Neurodata Without Borders (NWB) format and uploading to the DANDI Archive. In these tutorials, we detail this
+process from initial setup to final upload.
