This looks like a nice library and the parsing API seems very sane (getting a Map for query parameters is very convenient).

Not sure why they've decided to check in the examples into src/main though: https://github.com/anthonynsimon/jurl/tree/master/src/main/j...

Hey thanks for pointing that out. I'm rather new to the Java ecosystem so if you can point me in the right direction it would be great!

What would be a good practice for placing the examples folder into a Java project? Something like the following?

  Project Root
      /jurl
          /src
              /main
              /test
              /examples <= HERE
              ...

Off hand I don't know if maven/gradle support that directory structure and both are a bit fickle about custom naming.

I'd put them in an entirely separate repo and link to it from the README.

It's common to split example code into a separate sub-project so it doesn't get compiled into your release JAR.
