Yo Java fam – here’s your bite-sized roundup of what went down last week in the Java world. Let’s get into it:
Java 22 Gaining Steam
More devs are jumping on Java 22 for its cool features like unnamed variables and patterns, and stream gatherers. If you haven’t tried it yet, now’s the time to vibe with the future of the language.
JUnit 5.11 Released
New release alert — JUnit 5.11.0 dropped with better support for dynamic tests and new lifecycle hooks. Say goodbye to repetitive test code.
Spring Boot 3.3 RC1 Is Out
Spring heads, check this out — Spring Boot 3.3.0-RC1 is prepped and ready. Native image support is smoother, and it plays super nicely with Java 21+.
Maven 4 Beta 2 Released
Yup, Maven 4.0.0-beta-2 is out. Finally bringing modern dependency resolution and better build performance. It’s still in beta, but looks promising AF.
Project Leyden Buzz
The Leyden discussions are heating up again with a focus on startup time and performance. Java might finally get those instant-startup vibes like native apps.
That’s the tea for last week — follow for more dev drops every Monday.
