Ishan Chattopadhyaya commented on SOLR-14726:
---------------------------------------------

There's a draft PR here: https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/pull/2594
It is meant for branch_8x. I will pick it up only if there's interest among fellow committers and no objection in pursuing in this direction.

> The reference guide Solr tutorial is here:
> https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/8_6/solr-tutorial.html
> It needs to be simplified and easy to follow. Also, it should reflect our best practices, that should also be followed in production. I have following suggestions:
> # Make it less verbose. It is too long. On my laptop, it required 35 page downs button presses to get to the bottom of the page!
> # First step of the tutorial should be to enable security (basic auth should suffice).
> # {{./bin/solr start -e cloud}} <-- All references of -e should be removed.
> # All references of {{bin/solr post}} to be replaced with {{curl}}
> # Convert all {{bin/solr create}} references to curl of collection creation commands
> # Add docker based startup instructions.
> # Create a Jupyter Notebook version of the entire tutorial, make it so that it can be easily executed from Google Colaboratory. Here's an example: https://twitter.com/TheSearchStack/status/1289703715981496320
> # Provide downloadable Postman and Insomnia files so that the same tutorial can be executed from those tools. Except for starting Solr, all other steps should be possible to be carried out from those tools.
> # Use V2 APIs everywhere in the tutorial
> # Remove all example modes, sample data (films, tech products etc.), configsets from Solr's distribution (instead let the examples refer to them from github)
> # Remove the post tool from Solr, curl should suffice.
