Tutorials and GitHub repository

My wish is that the Hololens Academy files all started with the code from the GitHub HoloToolkit repository.

In trying to use the HoloToolkit and the tutorials to create new experiences its been frustrating to try to understand why the code for the same scripts are different in their execution. Most times the base code is different enough between the two that it becomes a spider web of scripts to try to decode.

Just my 2 cents.

    @AWarren,
    Thank you for your feedback! As you point out, the Holographic Academy and the HoloToolkit are related. Also as you noted, they are not 100% the same. The reason for this is that many of the courses are teaching the concepts that are in the HoloToolkit.

    The HoloToolkit also contains contributions from the community which by nature leads to a divergence from the code in the Academy classes.

    Are there any specific differences we can help untangle?

    Thanks!
    David
