Describe your suggestion

One difficultly I had when I was learning just_audio (and audio_service) was how to apply the documentation and the example project to my use case. Both the docs and the example app by necessity cover a wide range of functionality. This makes it somewhat difficult for new users. I'd like to propose including a list of tutorials in the documentation that would walk users through more specific use cases. I've just completed one and I'm thinking about writing more:

• https://suragch.medium.com/playing-short-audio-clips-in-flutter-with-just-audio-3c80eb7eb6ea

If there are any poor practices in that tutorial I'd be happy to revise it.

This is related to #319, which also includes a link to a good tutorial.

Here is a second tutorial in the series:

Nice tutorials, @suragch ! Along with @mvolpato 's tutorial this would make a nice section in the README. I can wait for your 3rd article if you like before updating the README.

[suragch]

@ryanheise Thank you. Yes, I can finish the third tutorial first. That will be on playlists. I'll add it here when I'm done.

Here is the third tutorial:

• https://suragch.medium.com/managing-playlists-in-flutter-with-just-audio-c4b8f2af12eb

Awesome! Will try to a documentation release at my next opportunity.

The tutorials are on Medium and sometimes Medium paywalls non-subscribers if they've read more than a certain number of articles per month. The links I posted above are normal links, but here are the friend links. It would probably be better to use these so that no one gets paywalled.

1. Playing short audio clips in Flutter with Just Audio
2. Streaming audio in Flutter with Just Audio
3. Managing playlists in Flutter with Just Audio

Hi @suragch I have just published a documentation release including links to your tutorials and @mvolpato 's tutorial. Thanks to both of you for writing up such helpful guides! I'm sure that it will really help new plugin users come to terms with the API in a way that the API docs themselves would not.

[suragch]

Great! Thank you.
