Hey, I started a Kotlin group - check it out and join if you'd like! I just put up a page dedicated to Kotlin links, books, and more resources. Will add more features like popular frameworks and chat later on.
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.

Starting next August, Amazon will begin charging for the AWS Lambda initialization phase for managed runtimes. While the company frames this change as a billing standardization to align with existing behavior, and many in the community view it as a step toward more predictable and unified billing, others see it as a price increase by AWS.

This article explores developing software for microcontrollers in C or C++, where constraints are the limited amount of volatile memory and the embedded hardware platform on which the software runs. It shows how to adopt languages like C++ while optimizing for binary size due to stringent hardware constraints, and trade off between runtime efficiency and binary size in architecture decisions.

Here's a link to Ramya's recording of Jim Clarke's presentation to the OrlandoJUG on the new Java release cadence and new features in Java 9, 10, and 11 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1HriPfCLQZxTRPBZ6Pr84uRheVK3BKsxc
Amanda, Ramya posted a recording of Jim's talk in the OrlandoJUG Town group.
Great! Amsterdam is one of the best cities in the world. Good luck on your talk. Maybe you can write up some high points for Kotlin Town. I have a good friend in Amsterdam https://www.facebook.com/alan.byrne Try to eat: stroopwafels and new herring from a street vendor.
Hi Amanda, Jim gave a great talk and someone recorded it. I'll try to get it and post it. How is KotlinConf?
Glad your talk went well. Cool venue! I would hazard a guess that Jim likes native development better. He's here on Codetown, so you can connect with him if you want. I'll talk a bit about the Kotlin revolution at tonight's OrlandoJUG meeting and point people to your Kotlin Town here on Codetown.
Hi Amanda!
Yesterday, I talked with Jim Clarke, author of JavaFX: "Developing Rich Internet Applications"
I mentioned you and your work with Kotlin. I forwarded him some info on TornadoFX.
He's the featured presenter for OrlandoJUG in September.
Looking forward to reading more of your Kotlin articles!
Blog posts about Kotlin would be great. In fact, maybe we'll start a Kotlin group... Can't wait to read your blog posts.
Hi Amanda, welcome on Codetown! I hope you’ll make use of your Codetown blog and join some groups.
