This is a simple application created in about 10 minutes that shows how to use Tapestry 5 to create a very basic web application along the lines of Reddit, Digg or Hacker News. It lets users add links and vote up the ones they find interesting. It was created as a demonstration and is not at all something you want to run in production, but it should give you a very good idea of what programming using the Tapestry framework is like.
