NLJUG – Nederlandse Java User Group NLJUG – de Nederlandse Java User Group – is opgericht in 2003. De NLJUG verenigt software ontwikkelaars, architecten, ICT managers, studenten, new media developers en haar businesspartners met algemene interesse in alle aspecten van Java Technology.
Since December last year, the Foojay podcast virtually visited a Java User Group monthly.
This journey has already brought us to many places around the world.
And this time, we are in Chicago to learn from the Java and Kotlin user groups.
