J-Spring 2024: I won’t let Java confuse you! – Nataliia Dziubenko

Sometimes the code that seems clear can turn out to be quite deceiving, even in some really basic concepts. In such situations, it’s good to question whether that code doesn’t smell… Either way, it’s our responsibility to know about the cases where Java can be confusing and why. In this session we will peek deeper […]

J-Spring 2024: Reading Code – Marit van Dijk

As developers, we spend a lot of time learning to write code, while spending little to no time learning to read code. Meanwhile, we often spend more time reading code than actually writing it. Shouldn’t we be spending at least the same amount of time and effort improving this skill? Deliberate practice can help us […]

J-Spring 2024: Going serverless with Quarkus, GraalVM native images and AWS Lambda – Bert Jan Schrijver

  A conference app backend makes the ideal candidate for a serverless architecture: Almost no traffic during the year, and peak traffic during conference days. In this talk, I’ll show how I migrated the backend for the NLJUG conference app (used to rate talks for conferences with 1500+ attendees) from a traditional approach with Java […]
