Community tutorials
Note (September 2026): Faircamp 2 was just released and most community tutorials at this point are still written for Faircamp 1.x – while the fundamentals work the same in both, there will be many things that are subtly different and some things that are will be outdated until the guides are updated eventually.
There are also great tutorials from the community, such as Meljoann's faircamp introduction (for all platforms), LinuxCreative's video guide (for Linux) and Johann Bourquenez's french faircamp tutorial (for all platforms). You can also mix and match these, each has its own style, but the approach is always the same.
