Thanks for the PR!

We hope these apps help you get started using Electron. Here are a handful other resources for learning more:

- [electron-quick-start](https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start): A minimal Electron application boilerplate.
- [minimal-repro](https://github.com/electron/minimal-repro): A minimal Electron application boilerplate.

I don't think we should update old blog posts.

I agree with @nikwen here. Modifying old blog posts opens a whole other can of worms about dead projects and outdated links.

We could add some kind of website preamble to the blog in the future to indicate old articles to indicate stale content.

Maybe something like what The Guardian does?

Agreed with @nikwen and @erickzhao. I opened a tracking issue for @erickzhao's idea which I think is a good one. Since both of these blog posts are 5+ years old, I'm going to close this out. That said, thank you for the thoroughness in tracking down electron-quick-start references, @yangannyx!

Sorry for the late reply! The "this post is old" notice is a great idea.
