Faster, Better, Cleaner Java Development with Agentic LLMs

Join Adam Bien (linkedin.com/in/adam-bien) to how Large Language Models can help you write better, more maintainable Java code while working faster, leveraging Java's unfair advantage - LLMs learned from Java's open standards (JEPs, JSRs, BCE, javadoc, patterns and idioms), strong typing and clear structure. This practical workshop, covers proven techniques for using LLMs effectively: from writing efficient prompts and creating reusable patterns, through iterative development and testing, to documentation and enterprise maintenance.
