Join us at the OrlandoJUG This April for a presentation on Git, the version control tool and Gradle, the build tool. Jim Moore will give the presentation.
Abstract:
This session will talk about the evolution of code-management tools, specifically build-management and source revision support. We'll briefly look at the "old school" tools that developers in the Java community are usually familiar with, such as CVS, SVN, Ant and Maven. Then we'll see what the current generation of those kinds of tools (specifically Git and Gradle) do. Besides obviously being very powerful open-source implementations of these kinds of tools, one of their most important uses is to change and expand how we think about many of the issues around the development process. (Note: This will be primarily a demo-driven talk.)
Speaker Bio:
Jim Moore is the Executive Director of Platform Engineering at Canoe Ventures. He has many years of experience with delivering solutions at all layers of the software stack, from code-monkey to tech-lead to consultant to executive management (and still tries to be a code-monkey when possible). He's repeatedly learned the value of tools that support developers, instead of trying to make developers conform to the workflows of the tools.
Please RSVP so we'll know how much food to order, And, please feel free to invite a friend using the Codetown Invite feature. We're looking forward to seeing you!

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.

Ben Hartshorne discusses how to pitch a product, covering why one needs to make a business case, what is tech debt, what data is most compelling, getting tech debt on other teams’ roadmaps
By Ben HartshorneIn this podcast the Culture and Methods editorial team along with special guest Jutta Eckstein talk about the current state and trends we see in the technology industry in 2024.
By Susan McIntosh, Jutta Eckstein, Craig Smith, Ben Linders, Rafiq GemmailHashicorp recently released the version 2.3 of Terraform Cloud Operator for Kubernetes with a new feature: the ability to initiate workspace runs declaratively. The Terraform Cloud Operator for Kubernetes was introduced in November 2023 with the goal to provide a Kubernetes-native experience while leveraging Terraform workflows
By Claudio MasoloMore projects from the CNCF incubated level are preparing to graduate for an ever-widening cloud native ecosystem. The Backstage community has worked on a more robust architecture, and Crossplane aimed to improve its developer DX. KubeFlow and Volcano, both tools promising to improve AI adoption within the Kubernetes ecosystem, are working on easier installation and more features, respectively.
By Olimpiu PopAccording to Marijn Huizenveld, discipline is key to preventing accumulating technical debt. In order to be disciplined you should make it difficult to ignore the debt. Heuristics like fixing small issues immediately, agreeing on a timebox for improvement, and making messy things look messy, can help tame technical debt.
