Steps
Step 1 - The weird step
This is step 1, everything about this step is weird, that's why I don't write this so long.
Step 2 - Finish the weird step
This concludes step 1, the weird step. Hopefully, step 2 isn't as weird as step 1 but still a little weird.

Exactly, this isn't any weird at all!
Finishing word
Tada! Now you've read a full tutorial. Congratulations!
