Why is We Retail deprecated (achieved)

[tadijam47062732]

On (Adobe We Retail)[GitHub - Adobe-Marketing-Cloud/aem-sample-we-retail:    We.Retail has been archived, see instead the...​ ] - reference project site it said:

"We.Retail is no longer supported, the WKND Guide is the replacement reference site for Adobe Experience Manager."

Does anyone knows why is this the case?

It has happened in the past for other sample site where Adobe no longer updated or enhanced Geometrixx content.

You can still use We-retail in AEM 6.5 but there will be no updates/code fixes done in the future.

All the new features including SPA/XF etc. have been included in the WKND project and thats where Engineering team will be introducing the latest use-cases and code sample.

So, going forward, it is recommended to use WKND instead of we-retail.
