<h1>Examples</h1>

<p>The best way to learn Nu is to see some examples. </p>

<p>Here are several. You can find them in the <code>examples</code> directory of the Nu source distribution, or in <code>/usr/local/share/nu/examples</code> after you've installed Nu. </p>

<li><a href="/currencyconverter">CurrencyConverter</a></li>

<li><a href="/screensaver">Screen Saver</a></li>

<li><a href="/maildemo">MailDemo</a></li>

<li><a href="/nuanywhere">NuAnywhere</a></li>

<p>Since the installed files and directories are owned by <strong>root</strong>,

you'll need to copy them somewhere before you build or modify the examples.</p>
