Portland Java User Group: Dependency Management
Website
Description
Portland Java User Group meeting
RSVP: https://www.meetup.com/pdxjug/events/311627978/
this month's topic: Dependency Management for Java applications
Details
Modern Java systems utilize hundreds (or thousands) of dependencies. Each additional dependency adds complexity to the application development process. Java developers need to think about how to manage internal libraries and external libraries. In this talk, we will share our experiences with dependency management in large Java systems.
We'll cover technical challenges that Java developers face when maintaining legacy applications. We will also examine best practices for managing dependencies in greenfield projects. We will discuss standard build tools such as Maven and Gradle. We'll share mistakes that we made and bugs that we encountered.
