Better organization and documentation in the samples #896

I'm just trying to find an example of how to use the custom search API.  
Unfortunately, I have a flat list of sample codes where when I click on them 
there's lots of instructions on how to download the code, but no documentation 
on what the sample shows me how to do (beyond the sample's title).  Please make 
this so that I can actually figure out what's going on without reading the 
source code!

Hi, we have generic instructions on how to get started with the Google API Java 
Client and sub pages [1] for how to use each feature. Then we give real life 
samples in the samples repository (probably the one you were looking at) for 
hunger users.

There are separate support sites for each Google API, which are the best places 
to demonstrate usage of a particular API. For the customer search API, you want 
get started from 
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/json-api/v1/overview
