It is an example application which you can build on easily.
The 'welcome' app is the default scaffolding app which is what you get
when you use site admin to create a new app.

Copy/Paste ;)

I'm unaware of any other published examples.

T2 has been deprecated by gluon/tools.py which does most of the same
job but better.
(I still use t2.search() currently as I've not prioritised rewriting
that in a different way yet)

> Is T3 still useful?

The key example which T3 provides is that all the config is loaded
from the DB instead of text files, which means you can more easily
create alternative configuration interfaces.
However this is currently built on the now-deprecated T2, so I'd copy
this basic idea if you need it, rather than the whole app.

Yes, T3 could be seen as a scaffolding app.

If using T2 as scaffolding, copy/paste in your changes.
If learning from T3 in your own app then copy/paste those parts into
your app.

Ultimately you'll want to look at jQuery if you want to get into AJAX:
