add tutorial for most obvious wifi@home task

There is a very good project at https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/6re2v3/the_last_wifi_automation_profile_youll_ever_need/ and I recommend adding this as an entry tutorial for beginners.

I think turning wifi on at home is the one task which has the most benefit for most users.

And a tutorial like this will serve as an example to get users into tasker much easier than explaining things from a programmer's perspective.

Thanks for getting back to me.

I was referring to the mentioned wifi@home task not so much because of the specific function but because it shows in an easy-to-follow way how things can interact with each other and how to build more complex tasks.
It also tells on the fly how to set up and import a project.

Also, I think that textual examples have some advantages over video tutorials when it gets to more complex things as they allow searching, reading at ones own pace, skipping over already understood parts etc.
Textual tutorials are also easier to update to changes in the UI.

I created a similar tutorial for beginners here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6EAbLW5WSk

Everyone's needs are different. Personally I feel like turning off wifi ever doesn't make much sense so I wouldn't use the one you linked to myself :) It's hard to find the profile that almost everyone would use ;)
