Spring Tips: Making the Joyful Jump to Java 21

Hi, Spring fans! Java 21 and GraalVM supporting Java 21 are at long last here! It’s been a long time in coming, but Java 21 - which comes out later today on the 19th of September, 2023 - brings with it some of the most exciting new features of any Java release. In this video, I (@coffeesoftware) will look at some of the foundational features from Java 17 and see how they culminate in Java 21. I’ll look at the biggest features - virtual threads and pattern matching. I’ll also look at some of the quality-of-life features that you might not otherwise notice, but that are nice to have. And of course, I’ll touch on how virtual threads integrate with Spring Boot 3.2. And, as a bonus, I am joined by two fellow Java Champions (and friends) Enrique Zamudio (@chochosmx) and Eddú Meléndez (). There’s never been a better time to be a Java developer, and the fun starts right here! #GraalVM #Java #Java21 #SpringBoot #Java
