New Content Proposal: Youtube Video

PDDL needs a youtube video 5-25 minutes long to explain:
PDDL's goals
Reason for its existence
Example problem domain and how to solve
Explanation of what it can and can't do
Real world use and maybe a more complicated example
Maybe some other stuff??

Justification: There aren't any online resources

@JonIsAmazingYa Thoughts please on structure and format?

This is now being followed up within the department and there is interest in creating a three part series documenting AI Planning

A very tall order to document all of AI Planning ;).

Just want to point out that a natural place for such a video would be on the education portal. Also (despite it not being added yet), there are a series of videos that focus on the vscode plugin here. There are also a range of tutorials you can find online that aren't in video form: one of my favourites (which doesn't even come from within the community!) is this one.

I gave a 2-part internal course on PDDL modeling, which was mainly interactive and had folks model on the spot, and can share the slides if it would help.

Finally, if you're familiar with how many software systems step you through their interface in tutorial fashion, there is a long-standing idea to do something similar with the online PDDL editor. Except instead of learning the interface (which is arguably fairly minimal and accessible), you would be learning how to model in PDDL.
