We have created a number of example mods, these are designed to demonstate as many of the newer modding features as possible so people can use it as a reference when making their own mods or reading the documentation found elsewhere in this GitHub repository.

You can find the mods on the next page, just download the specific folder you want and place it inside the "My mods" folder on your installation to experience the mod.
