A recent survey by Perforce, a provider of Java development and DevOps tools, has revealed that while slightly over half (51%) of Java shops plan to increase their Java developer headcount in the coming year, this marks a decline from 60% in 2024. The data, presented in Perforce’s 2025 Java Developer Productivity Report, indicates a more cautious approach to hiring in the Java development space. This decline reflects broader industry trends, as companies face economic uncertainties and reassess their talent acquisition strategies. Despite this dip, Java continues to be a central language in enterprise development, and the need for skilled…

Developer productivity is an ever-evolving conversation in the world of software development. As the pace of innovation accelerates, the question remains: How can we make not only the coding process faster but also more reliable and efficient? Tools to assist with development have seen a resurgence, from AI-assisted pair programming and low-level refactoring services to advanced syntax and error detection systems that improve our workflow before a single line of code is executed. One of the most impactful advancements in developer tools has come from improvements in compilers and languages, with .NET’s Roslyn compiler leading the charge. Roslyn enables real-time…

Google DeepMind has unveiled the latest iteration of its generative AI models—Gemma 3. This significant update introduces multi-modal capabilities that enable the models to process and understand visual data alongside text. With Gemma 3, users can now analyze images, identify objects, and answer questions about the content within images, marking a major step forward in AI’s ability to understand and interpret complex visual information. Launched on March 12, Gemma 3 is available for experimentation in the Google AI Studio, providing developers with a powerful platform for AI development. This new version also brings substantial improvements to the model’s abilities in…

GitHub recently unveiled plans to restructure its GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) offering by unbundling it into two distinct products: GitHub Secret Protection and GitHub Code Security. This move, set to take effect on April 1, aims to simplify access to essential security tools while enhancing the overall value of GitHub’s security platform. GitHub Secret Protection is designed to prevent sensitive data leaks before they occur. By employing a combination of push protection, secret scanning, AI-powered detection, and security insights, the tool helps developers secure their code from inadvertent exposure of secrets. On the other hand, GitHub Code Security focuses on…

After more than a decade of independent operation, the OpenInfra Foundation—formerly known as the OpenStack Foundation—is making a major move: it’s officially joining the Linux Foundation. This shift marks a strategic realignment aimed at unifying efforts across the broader open infrastructure ecosystem and addressing the evolving needs of its global community. OpenStack’s journey began in 2010 as a joint project between Rackspace and NASA, intended to bring open-source principles to cloud infrastructure. As the project rapidly gained traction, conversations surfaced around its governance and long-term stewardship. Though there was early discussion about joining the Linux Foundation, the OpenStack community opted…

In today’s world of cloud-native apps, real-time APIs, and continuous deployment pipelines, nearly every aspect of software development assumes one critical constant: internet access. Most developers rely on network connectivity so heavily that even brief disruptions—like a flight with no Wi-Fi—feel like insurmountable obstacles. But what happens when a lack of connectivity isn’t just a temporary hiccup, but a permanent part of the job? This is the reality of developing in air-gapped environments—systems that are deliberately disconnected from any network, often for security, compliance, or isolation reasons. For Python developers, this raises a series of immediate challenges. How do you…

Astro has rapidly gained popularity among JavaScript developers for its unique and refreshing approach to building web applications. Unlike traditional front-end frameworks that lean heavily on client-side rendering, Astro shifts much of the work back to the server, allowing developers to create fast, content-focused websites with minimal JavaScript. But getting started with Astro can be a bit disorienting at first—especially if you’re coming from a SPA-centric world like React or Vue—because Astro doesn’t always follow the familiar patterns. This article takes a practical approach to understanding Astro by walking through the development of a simple to-do list app. The aim…

For decades, the concept of assembly language has represented the bedrock of computing. Long before user-friendly interfaces and modern web frameworks, programmers worked close to the metal—manipulating memory and registers through low-level instructions unique to specific processors. These cryptic command sets, while far from intuitive, gave skilled developers the control they needed to optimize performance and push hardware to its limits. But this tightly coupled relationship between software and physical architecture also came with trade-offs: software written for one type of processor couldn’t run on another without major modification. Traditionally, we’ve used compilers to bridge this gap—translating high-level languages like…

As Java approaches its 30th anniversary this May, Oracle is preparing to host JavaOne 2025, its flagship developer conference dedicated to all things Java. Set to take place March 18–20 at Oracle’s Redwood City campus in California, the event promises to blend retrospection, technical deep dives, and future-focused insights on one of the world’s most enduring programming languages. This year’s conference arrives just two months before Java’s official birthday on May 23, marking a major milestone in the language’s storied evolution. The theme of JavaOne 2025 spans three key dimensions: celebrating Java’s 30-year journey, advancing the Java platform into a…

Microsoft is making significant strides in improving TypeScript by developing a native implementation based on Google’s Go language. This initiative, which was announced on March 11, aims to significantly enhance the performance of TypeScript in various areas such as editor startup speed, build times, and memory usage. By transitioning the TypeScript compiler, tools, and code base from JavaScript to Go, Microsoft intends to make it easier for developers to work with large-scale codebases. This move promises to address many of the challenges developers face with TypeScript’s performance, especially when handling complex or large projects. The Go-based implementation of TypeScript is…
