DIY guide
Instructions for amateurs
A DIY guide is a set of instructions for completing a project yourself rather than hiring a professional.
DIY guides cover home improvement, crafts, repairs, and countless other tasks: I found a DIY guide for building raised garden beds.
The format ranges from step-by-step tutorials to video walkthroughs.
The emphasis is on accessibility—helping amateurs accomplish what might otherwise require specialized skills or expensive contractors.
