 \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Abstract}
 
-During my thesis work I became a caffeine addict.
+This paper discusses the design and development of a framework which can be used to create
+interactive tutorials running inside Docker containers, semi-automatically showcasing various
+IT topics in real time. The user is guided through exercises using real environments with
+real software, all with the possibility of interaction at any time.
+This technology can supplement/improve the way e-learning is usually done today
+-- which is mostly articles and learning videos -- and help users get hands-on experience
+on their way of acquiring knowledge.
+
+Currently more than 60 learning exercises based on this framework are available on
+the e-learning platform called Avatao, with more being released every week.
+This text is going to justify the need for such technology, explain the ideas leading
+to it, discuss architecture, use-cases and more.

-I really seem to like cats.
+As the world is being completely engulfed by software, the need for accessible, but
+high quality learning materials on software engineering and especially secure software
+engineering is on the rise.
+While we are enjoying the comfort that information technology provides us, we often forget
+about the risks involved in relying so much on software in our everyday lives.
+When taking a look on recent events, such as a cyber arms race taking place between leading
+powers, 50 million Facebook accounts being breached
+due to the incorrect handling of access tokens, or how China is building an Orwellian state 
+of total digital surveillance it becomes clear that security and privacy in the IT sector
+is more important now than ever.
+
+With all of our data slowly crawling towards the cloud and an IoT revolution on our necks,
+we as an industry must face the music and start actually doing something before we enter
+a new age of digital wild west.
+Unless we want to disconnect all our devices from all networks and ban USB sticks, the best
+lines of defense are going to be people -- a new generation of \emph{security conscious} users and
+developers.
+
+The goal of Avatao as a company is to help software developers in building a \emph{culture} of
+security amongst themselves, with the vision that if the world is going to be taken over by
+software no matter what, that software might as well be \emph{secure software}.
+Unless we want to run around in vulnerable self driving cars while exposing all our sensitive
+data through our ill-protected smart phones that is.
+To achieve this goal we have been working on an online e-learning platform with hundreds\
+\footnote{654 exercises as of today, to be exact}
+of hands-on learning exercises to help students and professionals
+master IT security, collaborating with
+universities around the world and providing a solution for companies in building
+\emph{security consciousness} amongst their developer teams.
+
+Since starting out we have amassed some experience in building fun challenges and tutorials
+that showcase the exploitation and fixing of relevant security vulnerabilites in code or
+configuration.
+Traditionally these exercises revolved around offensive and defensive tasks, with challenges
+often being split into two or more parts.
+For example users would have to hack a website by exploiting a buffer overflow vulnerability,
+then in the second challenge they would fix the code they've just exploited in a web based
+code editor.
+These kind of exercises offer great flexibility to reflect real world security issues, as in
+more complex challenges users might be required to exploit multiple vulnerabilites for success,
+and understand the ways they augment each other.
+We often recreate real world scenarios based on incident reports released by companies for
+added authenticity and relevance \cite{AkosFacebook}.
+Our challenges usually involve some sort of website acting as frontend for the vulnerable
+application, or require the user to connect to a server using SSH.
+
+While working as a content creator I have stumbled into the idea of automating the completion
+of challenges for QA\footnote{Quality assurrance} and demo purposes\
+\footnote{I used to record short videos or GIFs to showcase my content to management}.
+In a certain scenario I was required to integrate a web based terminal emulator in a
+frontend application to improve user experience by making it possible to use a terminal
+right on the website rather than having to connect through SSH.
+After I got this working I was looking into writing hacky bash scripts to automate the steps
+required to complete the challenge in order to make it easier for me to record the solution,
+as I have often found myself recording over and over for a demo without any mistakes.
+During the time I was playing around with this idea, researching possible solutions I've found
+a hidden gem of a project on GitHub called \emph{demo-magic}\
+\footnote{\href{https://github.com/paxtonhare/demo-magic}{https://github.com/paxtonhare/demo-magic}},
+which is esentially a bash script that simulates someone typing into a terminal and executing
+commands.
+I have created a fork of the project and integrated it into my challenge.
+Soon after recording demo videos was not even necessary anymore, as I have started to distribute
+the solution script with the challenge code itself, making it toggleable using build-time
+variables.
+
+I was quite pleased with myself, no longer having to do the busywork of recording videos,
+but what I did not know was that I have accidentally
+did something far more than a hacky bash script solving my challenges, as this little script
+was the basis of the idea for the project we call \emph{Tutorial Framework} or just \emph{TFW}.
