This specification, along with Thrift metadata definitions and other crucial components, is essential for developers to effectively read and write Parquet files. The parquet-format project specifically contains the format specifications needed to understand and properly utilize Parquet files. + +As a repository focused on specification, the parquet-format repository does not contain source code. + + +### parquet-mr + +The parquet-mr GitHub repository is part of the Apache Parquet project and specifically focuses on providing Java tools for handling the Parquet file format within the Hadoop ecosystem. Essentially, this repository includes all the necessary Java libraries and modules that allow developers to read and write Parquet files. Review Comment: I can make this change. These are referred to publicly as both projects and repo (in our mailing list as well) so I deliberately put both in. I'll stick with repository though. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
