You can also click directly on the highlighted stars if you want to quickly pick classes for the selected employee. Note that if you click a star that is more than 1 level above what the employee currently has, they will be sent for multiple classes at once.

At the top you can see which of your chosen employees are applicable for the education you have picked. When you click {H:Start education} all applicable employees will start their classes. If there are any employees left, you can then decide what they will be educated in. You can queue up classes for an employee by starting education for the employee several times.

In the education window you can pick a role and a specialization you want to educate your employees in. After they finish their class, employees will gain one star in the specialization you picked. Based on the employees and specialization you have picked, you can see how much time and money it will require for your employees to finish their classes.

Begin the tutorial by opening the {H:Employee window}, selecting the employees you want to educate and press the {H:Educate} button or by selecting one or more of your employees, press {KeyBind:ContextMenu} anywhere on the screen to bring up the context menu, and then pick {H:Educate employee}. You can see which employees are ready for education in the Employee window by looking for green icons in the {H:role} column.

You need an employee who is ready for education before you can begin the education tutorial. Employees will be eligible for education when they gain enough experience working on different tasks.

Your store may have a lot of users, but if you don't have any products for them to buy, your market share will stay low and you will fail to attract new clients. Luckily, you can offer other companies time-limited {H:exclusivity deals} for your store, to give your users something to buy. You can do this by opening any product overview, like {H:All software}, selecting a <b>software</b> product and clicking the {H:Exclusivity deal} button. These won't be cheap, especially for new products, but each sale will drive up the market share of your store.

If you want to make some extra income by distributing other companies' products, you can enable it using the highlighted toggle. Your digital market share and business reputation, combined with the cut you decide to take of your clients' products, will determine how many are willing to sign up to your digital store. Companies will automatically start signing up to your service each month. It's up to you whether you want to accept all new deals, or let them in one-by-one, by checking the {H:Auto-accept new deals} toggle. The percentage label on the slider becomes red when you change your cut, to indicate whether the current cut has a chance to make clients cancel their deal entirely. Finally, you should note that you'll need extra bandwidth to handle selling all those extra products.

To start selling products through your own online store, you need to develop a distribution platform by clicking the highlighted button. Running a distribution platform requires a big support team and a high bandwidth server farm. Even if your store isn't selling much, it might still have a large userbase that will only hang around if you provide constant service. Once your store is up and running, you should update it regularly to keep up with tech levels and reduce bugs. Make sure to develop a new version of your platform once new features become available on your competitors' platforms. Please note that online stores don't really take hold until the 21st century, so you might not see much activity in the beginning. Press continue to learn about selling other companies' products.

This is a list of online stores that distribute software for a cut of the revenue. By default you are selling through all of them. You can click the checkmarks in the list and uncheck {H:Auto-sign new platforms} to take full control. Note the {H:Consumer reach} number, as selling on too few stores can limit how many people will buy your product digitally. Press continue to learn about opening your own store.

Make sure you read the text in the marketing window, as it tells you how to handle the different marketing actions available to you.

Unless you have a publisher, you should make a press release to tell the world about your product, before you move on to the alpha phase of development. When you market your product before it's released, you build a following. A project's followers are guaranteed to buy the final product when it releases, however they might not all buy it straight away or they might refund it, if it is very buggy. Your employees will have to work on making the press release, so if you think it'll take a while, you can pause your design work by pressing the play button. Start by bringing up the marketing window again.

While you work on your design document, you should start telling the world about your new project. Start by announcing a release date by pressing the Market button. You'll have to do some guess work when picking a release date, but it will increase the effectiveness of all your future marketing efforts. Just make sure you release it on time!

You need to start a new project before the tutorial can continue

Let's check out the {H:Dependencies} page.

You can use or create a framework when developing software. Frameworks speed up development, but lock down the maximum tech levels of your features. Using a framework made by another company will require you pay a license fee from your profits. If you decide to create a new framework, it will extend development slightly, but the new framework can be licensed out to other companies to make some extra money on the side.

If you want to save your logo for later use or share with anyone else, click the {H:Generate code} button and copy the code.

To give your shape color you need to connect the output to a color node. {H:Note that shape nodes are blue and color nodes are red}. Start by creating a color node and connect the effect node to the color node. {H:Note that blue outputs only go to blue and red only goes to red}. To finish the logo you need to connect a color node to the final output.
