Most of us before start learning any new technology, will
want to see how this works, and should be visualized before starting it, so
that the understanding or the learning will be clear. That’s why almost all of
the vendors provide the Reference application for their product. This Reference
application will allow us to have the strong fundamentals and good
understanding of the product.
When I started learning the solr, I searched for this
refrence application at that time , I did not get to know about this
