I believe the success could be greatly improved if there were better fully written examples of good Flink code in the documentation, so it could imitate the correct syntax better. This would similarly improve the usefulness of the documentation.

05/31/2023, 9:47 AMIf it had been trained with a newer version of Flink, it would produce better results, this much is true.
