Wednesday, 31st August, Online Conference

Overview

You're invited to the free J Forum featuring keynotes by Holly Cummins, Ben Evans, Heather VanCura and Martijn Verburg.



After 25 years, is there anything new left to say about Java? Of course!

While doomsayers have been predicting the language's decline for years, Java still ranks as one of the top 5 most popular languages in the world (where in that top 5, depends on who1 you2 ask3). Not bad for a programming language that predates WiFi.

Ahead of this September's release of Java 19, join us as we welcome Holly Cummins, Ben Evans, Heather VanCura and Martijn Verburg for 4 keynotes exploring the current state of the Java ecosystem.

Register for free above and you'll be amongst the first to hear about updates on the schedule.
