Let’s connect! I love this idea for our internal Java community.

@calvobianco.com I've create an IntelliJ plugin with the new project wizard. This requires the Plugin DevKit plugin, which you'll probably want anyway. From there I explored their SDK which was decently documented at the time. Other sources of info I've found limited. LMK if you'd like help or info!

Excited to share that my article, “Unleashing the Power of Maven Archetypes”, will be featured in JavaPro’s special edition celebrating 30 Years of Java! Grateful to be part of this milestone.

On the custom instructions page of GitHub Copilot it’s only supported in VS Code and VS unfortunately

I haven’t had the chance to use it yet! I think the real win is not having to leave the IDE to use AI’s help. Not sure if it beats the suggestions though especially if you can (soon?🤞) add custom instructions like you currently can with VSCode and Visual Studio. Could become interesting with Qodana?

Today I realized I can use GitHub Copilot in Azure Data Studio as it's just VS Code under the hood. It makes DB scripting and querying much more enjoyable to me, by simply adding an extensions and login into @github.com.

Tip: it has less context than eg. IntelliJ so explain your goal in comments

Do you prefer this over Renovate or similar tools for updating versions in your managed dependencies? Or am I missing a use case?

On my way back home I got to witness the “Christmas-Express” in Arnhem. 🚂

Almost missed my own train while taking pictures 🙈

What a pleasant surprise!

@hanno.codes I see some inspiration for your next demo’s 😉

Perhaps a bit late to the party, but I just completed day 1 of Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode 🎅

Instead of hacking my way through the puzzles I'm aiming to solve them by writing clean code with the latest #java features 👀

What is your goal this year?

As far as I understand the versions plugin tells you if there is a newer version. The outdated plugin tells you that the version you are using is older than x years. If the latest version was published in 2019 it would be considered latest, but the project may be something to migrate away from

It’s quite the challenge to prevent breaking millions of applications, improve the current state, add new features, cover all scenarios, wishes and configurations out there. It’s not like 3.x wasn’t updated in the meantime of course

Betas are a way to provide valuable feedback to future releases and prevent disappointments

Ever wondered if your #java dependencies are fresh 🥦 or stale 💀? Well, I did, and I open sourced the #maven plugin to help you out!

You might be on the latest and greatest but are you really up-to-date?

Apache Maven 4.0.0-rc-1 just dropped! I’ve been running 4.0.0 betas for a while now and definitely loved it so far.

Make sure to give the new features and major improvements a swing yourself: maven.apache.org/download.cgi
