La démarche choisie pour atteindre cet objectif sera celle ci:
DRC JUG is a whole of people meeting around technologies Java (professionals, open communities source, companies, students, teachers, impassioned,…) this with an aim of popularizing l' ecosystem of multiple technologies revolving around the language Java, of its platform and its virtual machine. On the basis of the fact that Java technologies become increasingly impossible to circumvent within the companies, that the knowledge and the control of those Ci becomes an undeniable asset within the community of developers. We were given like objective to create in DRC a strong community around this technology, to instigate it and to provide an adequate foundation to the multiple developers and impassioned this art which would like is to learn or better, to integrate it within the companies for which lilies work or, to make of them their tools of predilection for the supply of software solution. The step chosen to achieve this goal will be that Ci: Organization of workshop, seminar and conference or we will arrange ourselves with the means of edge to see up to what point we can invite professionals recognized in the field to make us share their experiments, to make presentations on platforms recognized and which are references during the multiple stages of the development of applications, we could, train us has these technologies and to improve competences,… in short to make full with trick. We also count on the creation of set of themes group on technologies in Java technology such as sets of themes groups on the frameworks (Spring, Velocity, JSF, Struts, Hibernate, JBoss seam, Play Framework,…), others on technologies GUI (Swing, SWT, XUI, Apache Pivot, Fx Java,…) who exist in Java, others on the dynamic languages which are dealt with by Java (Java script, Groovy, Ruby,…), architectural aspects and patterns (MVC, Peer to peer, 1-third, 2-third, 3-third,…), methodologies of development of applications and the management of the life cycle of the applications in general and particularly that written in Java.

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Autonomous teams are an article of faith in modern software development. The shape of our value determines what we can do; it determines our trade-offs between agency and coherence. We all have a purpose, and we all have agency to do something, hence the suggestion is moving from product focus to value center thinking.

Lily Mara explains how to avoid high-risk software rewrites through incremental FFI refactoring. She shares how engineering teams can replace Python bottlenecks with Rust via PyO3, demonstrating how to achieve dramatic function-level speedups, seamless integration testing, and meaningful infrastructure cost savings without microservice overhead.
By Lily MaraAI coding assistants have become a core part of software development. AI-generated code has shown productivity gains, but it's also contributing to security weaknesses and familiar bug patterns. In this article, author Nitin Garg highlights the bottleneck has moved from code generation to code verification, and how to detect & mitigate it when the AI-generated behavior diverges from the intent.

In June 2026, the IETF published RFC 10008, introducing the QUERY method to HTTP, the first new standard HTTP verb since 2010. QUERY enables developers to send richer query filters in the request body while maintaining cacheable, safe, and idempotent semantics. This addition addresses long-standing limitations with GET and POST methods, facilitating improved API interactions.
