See all- Simpler Java Build Tools with Object Oriented Programming - by Li HaoyiRebel, Oslo
Want to learn about a new build tool for Java/Scala? Join ScalaBin Oslo as we welcome Li Haoyi to talk about Mill. Li has his background from Dropbox and Databricks and he is also the author of the book "Hands-on Scala Programming" as well as being an experienced open source developer.
The meetup is hosted in cooperation with JavaBinTIME & DATE
13th August at 18:00 at Rebel Storsalen (3rd floor)
Pizza and drinks from 17:30SUMMARY
The Java language is known to be performant, easy to use, and with great IDE support, but Java build tools like Maven or Gradle do not always live up to that reputation. This talk will explore why build tooling is fundamentally such a difficult domain to work in, and how common concepts from object-oriented programming have the potential to simplify the build tool experience. We will end with a demonstration of an experimental new Java build tool "Mill" that makes use of these ideas, proving out the idea that Java build tooling has the potential to be much faster, safer, and easier than it is today.SPEAKER BIO
