This Week in Spring - September 17th, 2024

Hi, Spring fans! Last week I was in scintilliating Seoul, Korea, and then tantalizing Tokyo, Japan, and now I’m in marvelous Mumbai, India, at the airport, actually, headed to New Delhi, India. It’s been a busy week for me and even busier a week for the community, so let’s dive into it!

• Java 23 is here! Happy Java 23 day to those who celebrate! Now to wait for SDKMAN to pick it up…
• In last week’s podcast episode, I (finally!) got to sit down with Spring creator Rod Johnson.
• Spring Tools has some cool new upgrades.
• I love this documentary looking at the success of Kotlin.
• Nice tip from Spring community member and JetBrains developer advocate Pasha Finkelshteyn: when you put a cron pattern like * 2 */3 * * 2 inside an @Scheduled annotation in a Spring application, IntelliJ IDEA explains what you just wrote!. Speaking of IntelliJ, the new EAP release is out and has some truly cool AI-centric features.
• Spring, Kotlin, and WebAssembly legend Sébastien Deleuze has updated his sample app demonstrating a litany of amazing new features.
• Just a friendly reminder, I’ve got a podcast that JetBrains ranked as one of the best podcasts for programmers — like and subscribe?
