How Student Tutorial works
- The addon shows the real selection and scene state for the step.
- The shortcut and menu path animate.
- The action runs once in the viewport so you see the result.
- The scene restores to the before state.
- Your turn. Do the action yourself.
- Show This Step Again replays the demo without advancing.
- ESC pauses and saves progress.
Progress file
Student progress is written to Blender's user config folder under blender_academy/student_progress.json. It stores the next step and a timestamp.
Tips

- Use a low Demo Speed for proportional editing and node sections.
