Experimental example projects

Hello,

I'd like to use a central_peripheral example project (sdk 15.3) : Experimental: ATT_MTU Throughput Example

What does it mean that an example project is experimental? Why is this project labeled as experimental?

What consequences or risks I should consider?

I'd appreciate your help,

Amit

    The experimental libraries have undergone less testing, and have usually been out for a shorter amount of time, so the chance of discovering bugs will be larger although none of the libraries should be assumed to be completely free of bugs.

    All libraries and examples in the SDK, both experimental and not, are provided "as is", so in the end, it is up to you to test your application sufficiently and confirm that it meets your requirements. 

    The only real "risk" of using an experimental example, is that it is more prone to bugs and deficiencies than others.

    Best regards,

    Simon
