Description

I wonder if the tutorials should be maintained. They're very out of date and were mostly direct translations of the C++ tutorial anyway. I think the documentation dictionary could be populated automatically from nanobind generated type/doc information.

If no one volunteers to maintain them, my inclination is to retire them.
