| [Lightbend Tech Hub](https://developer.lightbend.com/start/?group=play) offers downloadable Play examples for Java and Scala. Play has many features, so rather than pack them all into one project, we've organized many examples that each showcase a Play feature or demonstrate a common use case. The zip files include everything you need to build and run the examples, including a distribution of the sbt and Gradle. Refer to the `README.md` file in the top-level project directory to learn more about the example. | ||

Thanks, I already changed that recently in main and 2.9.x branch:
I didn't update the 2.8.x branch because in 2.8 Lightbend was still involved so I didn't see the need to change that branch. |
The "learning examples" page at https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.8.x/LearningExamples points to the Lightbend Tech Hub -- as this is a repackaging of play-samples and is Lightbend specific, it's probably a good idea to move to directly using the samples. There's also an issue in that there are two "getting started" projects: https://github.com/playframework/play-samples/tree/2.8.x/play-scala-hello-world-tutorial and https://github.com/playframework/play-samples/tree/2.8.x/play-scala-starter-example The hello world example is referenced in the documentation: https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.8.x/HelloWorldTutorial We should consolidate these so there's only one "getting started" project.
