Java has made huge strides in recent years, not only in terms of language but also in terms of tools. Modern tools such as JBang, SDKMAN, jEnv, jdeps, and JLink make developers' everyday work easier, more reproducible, and faster. In this session, I will show you how to build a lean, flexible, and cloud-enabled development environment with a modern Java toolbox—from fast scripting and simple dependency management to reproducible builds and modern runtime environments.

A presentation for anyone who wants to use Java more productively — with lots of examples and concrete tips from real-world experience.
