I was wondering if anyone had a good tutorial for Open Trip Planner. I am not an experienced programmer and I am having a lot of trouble understanding what the documentation wants me to do. I got through basic usage, but after that I became very confused. For example, I think the next relevant section is configuration. The first paragraph is about build directories. What exactly is a build directory? I've looked all over the internet for, but I didn't see any tutorials, and only a handful of stack overflow/exchange questions.

I have written a tutorial on using OTP that might be useful:
https://github.com/marcusyoung/otp-tutorial
It's aimed at beginner/intermediate users of OTP (setting up and query an OTP instance, automation using some R functions) rather than developers looking to amend OTP code.
