The Amazing Features of Modern Java
Wednesday, 8:30 AM MDT - Westminster II
In recent years the development of the Java language has accelerated significantly. Some of the more recent features are quite exciting and can lead to better modeling, fewer errors, less verbosity, and better developer productivity. In this presentation we will take a close look at these features and their significance. We will use concrete examples as use cases to explore the modern features. In addition to looking at these features we will also take a look under the hood at how these are implemented. This will help us to gain a better understanding of the builtin efficiencies these features come with.
Get ready to take part in some live coding as we dive into these amazing features.
