 The code entered by the user during the session is compiled and results in extra classes. These are accessible via a small web server that `AmmoniteSparkSession.builder()` launches, and whose address is passed to Spark via `"spark.repl.class.uri"` in the SparkConf.
 
-Lastly, if extra dependencies are loaded during the session after the SparkSession is created, users should call `AmmoniteSparkSession.sync()`. This passes to Spark any JAR added since the SparkSession creation, using the `addJar` method of `SparkContext`.

 ## `AmmoniteSparkSession` vs `SparkSession`
 
 The builder created via `AmmoniteSparkSession.builder()` extends the one from `SparkSession.builder()`. It does a number of things more compared to it.
