-------------------------------------------------------------------

As someone who is still new to Aurora, I'd love to see an interactive tutorial 
that includes lessons on the .aurora configuration files.   Personally, I found 
the 'aurora' CLI tool quite easy to learn (aside from the CLUSTER/ROLE/ENV/NAME 
syntax, which was new to me and felt goofy).  The .aurora files, on the other 
hand, took much more time to learn.   Perhaps some kind of side-by-side view 
where one pane holds a command-line and the CLI tool, and the other side holds 
a configuration file with interactive instructions (think arrows/highlighting 
pointing to key sections) that help you learn its functionality.

Thanks for taking this on!

> To make Aurora easier to understand, it would be great to have an interactive 
> online tutorial, preferably one that helps you understand the Aurora CLI and 
> value of Aurora without having to spin up a vagrant box. I've seen what 
> Docker has developed to get folks started (https://www.docker.com/tryit/), 
> and it seems like something that would be hugely beneficial to replicate in 
> some way.
> Unfortunately, the web-based terminal library that Docker uses is licensed 
> under GPL, but there seem to be a variety of MIT, BSD, and Apachev2 licensed 
> libraries that may help someone who takes this on.
> I've created a similar issue for Mesos (MESOS-2445) -- if they get to this 
> first, perhaps we can reuse their code.
