Research direction

Start by finding the existing two-device setup example in the Syncthing documentation and read the surrounding guidance. Add a simple three-device folder-sync example in the same documentation area, then verify that the example is included in the documentation build.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The syncthing documentation only includes an example of how to set-up syncthing between two devices. This may lead people to believe that nothing else is possible with syncthing.

It would be good if there were also a simple example demonstrating how to use syncthing to sync a folder between three devices.
