Jeff Kolesky commented on AVRO-1202:
------------------------------------
Just a quick question about creating the {{User}} object. Is it not
recommended to use the builder like so:
{code}
User user = User.newBuilder().
setName("Alyssa").
setFavoriteNumber(256).
build();
{code}
I was under the impression that was the correct way to build {{SpecificRecord}}
objects that had been generated from schemas so that defaults would be
appropriately set and fields appropriately validated.
> Add "Getting started" guide to documentation

> The Avro documentation is currently not very beginner-friendly -- it's hard
> to figure out basics like code generation, de/serialization, etc. We should
> write a "Getting started" guide and similar documentation for those new to
> Avro, as well as include some example code with the docs.
