> @MartijnVisser I have an idea whether it is possible to take the content of the https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-release-1.14/docs/connectors/datastream/formats/ link page and move it to the current pr. Because the biggest point of the current pr is to guide users through the API, and it would be more beginner-friendly to have various types of examples as a supplement. I'm not sure that's a good idea, because Formats can also be used by multiple connectors. You can read/write Avro from/to FileSystem, but you can also use it with Kafka or Pulsar. I don't think we should mix them up. I think a natural concept is that you first start with where you want to use data from (which is a connector) and then you think about what data you want to use and how (which is more format related). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
