+# Contributing Tutorials
+
+We appreciate your interest in contributing tutorials to the Open WebUI documentation. Follow the steps below to set up your environment and submit your tutorial.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. **Fork the `openwebui/docs` GitHub Repository**
+
+   - Navigate to the [Open WebUI Docs Repository](https://github.com/open-webui/docs) on GitHub.
+   - Click the **Fork** button at the top-right corner to create a copy under your GitHub account.
+
+2. **Configure GitHub Environment Variables**
+
+   - In your forked repository, go to **Settings** > **Secrets and variables** > **Actions** > **Variables**.
+   - Add the following environment variables:
+     - `BASE_URL` set to `/docs` (or your chosen base URL for the fork).
+     - `SITE_URL` set to `https://<your-github-username>.github.io/`.
+
+3. **Enable GitHub Actions**
+
+   - In your forked repository, navigate to the **Actions** tab.
+   - If prompted, enable GitHub Actions by following the on-screen instructions.
+
+4. **Enable GitHub Pages**
+
+   - Go to **Settings** > **Pages** in your forked repository.
+   - Under **Source**, select the branch you want to deploy (e.g., `main`) and the folder (e.g.,`/docs`).
+   - Click **Save** to enable GitHub Pages.
+
+5. **Run the `gh-pages` GitHub Workflow**
+
+   - In the **Actions** tab, locate the `gh-pages` workflow.
+   - Trigger the workflow manually if necessary, or it may run automatically based on your setup.
+
+6. **Browse to Your Forked Copy**
+
+   - Visit `https://<your-github-username>.github.io/docs` to view your forked documentation.
+
+7. **Draft Your Changes**
+
+   - In your forked repository, navigate to the appropriate directory (e.g., `docs/tutorial/`).
+   - Create a new markdown file for your tutorial or edit existing ones.
+   - Ensure that your tutorial includes the unsupported warning banner.
+
+8. **Submit a Pull Request**
+
+   - Once your tutorial is ready, commit your changes to your forked repository.
+   - Navigate to the original `open-webui/docs` repository.
+   - Click **New Pull Request** and select your fork and branch as the source.
+   - Provide a descriptive title and description for your PR.
