Great idea @will.schroeder !

We would first need a to make sure that we know what we want to do, see the discussion here:

> [@About the VTK examples](https://discourse.vtk.org/t/about-the-vtk-examples/3292/4):

> I would also like to emphasize the usefulness of this project. I use it for: proposals: for instance, what is available in VTK for mesh and point processing? The VTK Examples uses a filter categorization not available anywhere else as far as I know. coding: in the past I used to use tests to see how to use various classes, now I often use the VTK Examples. I also think VTKExamples is a great advertising tool for VTK. Dan
