What are you looking for a tutorial for?
Here are a couple of general basic ones for getting started with go-ipfs.
The easiest way to connect is to use Siderus Orion IPFS client. Check their website and GitHub page for details.
To actually use it, you should understand 2 very important things.
1st: IPFS objects or files or hashes (whichever you understand better) are links to content ( movies, pictures, documents, application files ). If you change the content you have to add the file to IPFS again and share the new hash with someone for them to get it. This is not very effective, because you have to bookmark links to every object you find…but it’s fast.
2nd: IPNS …This is the more useful part…IPNS is like your personal web-space or domain in the network. You can share your IPNS Hash or peerID with your friends so they can connect to your space. In you space, you can publish 1 IPFS object…as I understand it. I find the best thing to publish to your IPNS is a website. Inside the webpage you can put links to your other IPFS objects.
Here is how I do it:
Step 1: create a website with all the content in the website folder
Step 2: add folder to IPFS with Siderus Orion Client.
Step 3: right-click and publish the hash to your IPNS or peerID
Step 4: Share your IPNS address with your friends!
PS. remember to Bookmark any link to content you find…it’s the same as bookmarking and http website.

Here is my space on the IPFS network. Just to show how much a muggle can achieve in a short time. Big thanks to all the people I have learned from. You don’t know who you are.

I forgot to mention…at the moment, as I understand it, there is no way the stop someone from downloading your content. So it is not a good idea to add personal information or private files to IPFS unless you want people to download it.
You could add files if you encrypt them first. Then someone with similar software and the encryption key could read the file.
