I’ve been working with Spark and noticed all the spark examples on GitHub have moved, but I cant find where they went… A couple in particular are the SparkLSTMCharacterExample and AnimalModelByHdfsSparkCluster… Does anyone know what happened?

Please see the github search results here: [Search · Spark · GitHub](https://github.com/eclipse/deeplearning4j-examples/search?q=Spark&unscoped_q=Spark)

If an example was removed, it’s likely due to maintenance or the example being out of date/promoting bad practices.

OK…But it seems like a lot of the examples are missing… I tried looking at a [remoteUI Example](https://github.com/eclipse/deeplearning4j-examples/blob/master/dl4j-examples/src/main/java/org/deeplearning4j/examples/userInterface/RemoteUIExample.java) from [DL4J Konduit](https://deeplearning4j.konduit.ai/tuning-and-training/visualization) and it didnt work either…

Am I missing something?

Hi, yes this is mainly due to a refactoring. We had a lot of examples that weren’t maintained or up to date with best practices. If you need something, you are welcome to go back to previous commits of the examples. A lot of the basic examples you might be missing are probably just due to age. You are welcome to update the examples and help test them.
