Tutorials are designed to provide step-by-step guides to performing reaction mechanisms, making them ideal for students who need a detailed understanding of how to execute and apply specific reactions. They focus on detailed mechanisms and procedural insights, helping learners grasp the intricacies of reaction intermediates, transition states, and stereochemistry (if applicable).

Overviews, on the other hand, offer a broader exploration of reactions, delving into their history, reagents, and interesting facts. They emphasize contextual knowledge, reagent preparation, and fun insights, making them perfect for curious learners who want to go beyond the mechanics of reactions and engage with extra details. Topics in overviews often include historical significance, sourcing of reagents, unusual applications, and fascinating trivia.
