1. What is the LifeGuide?

Is LifeGuide the right tool for you? This section gives you a brief introduction to the LifeGuide.

2. Getting Started with the LifeGuide

Not sure where to start? Take a look at our getting started guide. This will tell you how to download the LifeGuide authoring tool and give you some pointers on how to begin designing and building your intervention (including some common pitfalls to avoid!).

3. Building your Intervention – The ‘How to...’ Guide

This ‘How To...’ guide will tell you all you need to know about designing, building, and evaluating interventions using the LifeGuide authoring tool.

We do recommend that you take a look at our ‘Getting Started’ guide before you start building your intervention and using the ‘How To ...’ guide.

4. Logic Dictionary

The logic dictionary provides a quick-reference guide to the full range of functions available within the LifeGuide authoring tool – what they are and how to use them. For more detailed explanation and examples please refer to our ‘How To...’ guide.

You’ll probably find the logic dictionary most useful once you’ve got to grips with how the LifeGuide authoring tool works using our ‘Getting Started’ and ‘How To...’ guides.
