JavaOne 2026 Session

Summary

In this hands-on hack session, you will learn why you want to use Java not just for big-iron projects, but for small tasks. Shell scripts become more robust in Java. Notebooks no longer force you into Python. With a bit of tool support, modern Java makes it easy...and typesafe. Bring your laptop and work through some prepared challenges or bring your own! You will come away with an appreciation of new use cases for the programming language you already use and love.
