Description

Instructables is an online community where a great variety of creations (from cooking recipes to flying objects and 3D printing) can be shared by anyone with step-by-step instructions explaining how they were made, in a simple, educational manner.

Instructable started as a home lab from Squid Labs founders Eric Wilhem and Saul Griffith in 2005. It was publicly launched in 2006, growing into a document of hundreds of thousands shared creations. The site is currently managed by Autodesk Inc.

Instructables provides a space where creativity can be shared at an informal, non commercial level, functioning as a showcase of fresh, D.I.Y. ideas anyone can try.

The creation process can be shared through photos, videos or text, following the website’s documentation guidelines, thus, encouraging users to upload a project others will share.

The website hosts a variety of projects in different categories (cooking, games, woodworking, technology and homesteading), where you can find anything from carpentry, to building lamps, arduino based projects, image design tutorials, toy building, crafting musical instruments, or camping and beach tools.
