Synopsis

Covers the Java Platform Module System in Java 11

Java 9 introduced the Java Platform Module System. The introduction of the module system affects existing applications and offers new ways of creating modular and maintainable applications. With this hands-on book, Java developers will learn not only about the joys of modularity, but also about the patterns needed to create truly modular and reliable applications. Authors Sander Mak and Paul Bakker teach you the concepts behind the Java Platform Module System, along with the powerful tools it offers. You’ll also learn how to modularize existing code and how to build new Java applications in a modular way.

• Understand the Java Platform Module System concepts
• Master the patterns and practices for building truly modular applications
• Migrate existing applications and libraries to Java modules
• Use JDK tools for modular development and migration

About the Authors

Sander Mak is a Fellow at Luminis in The Netherlands, where he crafts modular and scalable software. Most often on the JVM, but with a touch of TypeScript where needed. He writes, is an avid conference speaker and loves sharing knowledge through his blog at branchandbound.net, and also as a Pluralsight instructor.

Paul Bakker is a software architect for Luminis Technologies. His current focus is on building modular enterprise applications and the cloud. He believes that modularity and the cloud are the two main points we have to deal with to bring technology to a next level, and is working on making this possible for main stream software development. Today he is working on educational software focussed on personalised learning for high school students in the Netherlands. He is also responsible for pushing technology forward. Luminis strongly believes in open source and all the technology development they are doing happens in the open source community. Paul is an active contributor on projects such as Amdatu, Apache ACE, JBoss Forge and BndTools. He has a background as trainer on Java related technology and is a regular speaker on conferences.
