+WiPy tutorials and examples
+===========================
+
+Performing firmware upgrades
+----------------------------
+
+For detalied instructions see :ref:`OTA How-To <wipy_firmware_upgrade>`.
+
+Getting started with Blynk and the WiPy
+---------------------------------------
+
+Blynk is a platform with iOS and Android apps to control
+Arduino, Raspberry Pi and the likes over the Internet.
+You can easily build graphic interfaces for all your
+projects by simply dragging and dropping widgets.
+
+There are several examples available that work out-of-the-box with
+the WiPy. Before anything else, make sure that your WiPy is running
+the latest software, check :ref:`OTA How-To <wipy_firmware_upgrade>`.
+
+1. Get the `Blynk library <https://github.com/wipy/wipy/blob/master/lib/blynk/BlynkLib.py>`_ and put it in ``/flash/lib/`` via FTP.
+2. Get the `Blynk examples <https://github.com/wipy/wipy/tree/master/examples/blynk>`_ edit the network settings, and afterwards
+ upload them to ``/flash/lib/`` via FTP as well.
+3. Follow the instructions on each example to setup the Blynk dashboard on your smartphone.
+4. Give it a try, for instance::
+
+ >>> execfile('01_simple.py')
