Mod Tutorial Folder Usage??

As an introduction to modding, I'm looking through others code to see how some optional subfolders from the https://wiki.factorio.com/Tutorial:Mod_structure page work, and I cannot seem to find any use for the tutorials subfolder.

What does this folder do, specifically? genericmod/prototypes/tips-and-tricks seems to be a common place to store tips and tricks, but that isn't the tutorial folder.

There was no mod that used it. So I made a demo mod: https://github.com/Bilka2/tutorial-demo / https://mods.factorio.com/mod/tutorial-demo

The summary is that you just put scenarios into that folder and then reference those in the TutorialDefinition prototype, which then needs a tip and trick to be accessible for play in-game.
