Exploring Java 9 with REPL

Miro Cupak, Senior Software Engineer, DNAstack

JShell, Java’s read-eval-print-loop implementation, can provide a valuable addition to your workflow and introduces patterns that make exploration of new APIs faster and easier. Although it is undoubtedly one of the more interesting new features of Java 9, there are almost 100 other JEPs covering various smaller and bigger features. This session teaches you how to effectively work with JShell, and it does so by exploring several powerful, less-known features in JDK 9.
