A how-to is a set of steps that tells you how to do one practical job: how to change a tyre, how to bake bread, how to set up a phone. It can be a noun — ‘I found a how-to’ — or it can sit in front of another word: a how-to video, a how-to book, a how-to guide. The is the usual spelling. It is informal, useful, and very common online. It is not a full course and not a story; it is ‘do this, then this.’ Older people may still say instruction booklet or manual for the same kind of help; younger people often just say a how-to.
