Keras Applications is now just a forwarding address

What it does

This repository previously contained reference implementations of popular deep learning models—image classifiers and the like—that shipped ready-to-use with Keras. The README states that every model has been migrated into the core Keras repository and the TensorFlow package. What remains is a deprecation notice and a link to the current API documentation.

The interesting bit

There is no code left to admire; the repo has been fully evacuated upstream. Its sole remaining function is to tell visitors, bluntly and honestly, that the party has moved to another building.

Key highlights

• Historically hosted off-the-shelf reference models for Keras.
• All models now live in the core Keras repository and the TensorFlow package.
• Explicitly marked as deprecated by the maintainers.
• Points users to keras.io/api/applications/ for up-to-date guidance.

Caveats

• No active development, bug fixes, or model updates happen here anymore.
• The README warns that all discussion and code changes should move to the Keras repository.

Verdict

Only historians and legacy maintainers need browse these files; everyone else should head directly to the core Keras repository.
