Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring. By mistake, I inadvertently published older content in this installment, then tried to fix it and ended up re-publishing the same content.

So, without any further ado, here finally is this week's roundup! this is…

And so, in that spirit, my friends, I want to remind you — and I’m sure I can speak for the entire Spring team here, too! — that we are so grateful for you. The community is the most amazing…

Hi, Spring fans! In this installment, I sit down with the legendary Bruce Eckel, who has probably forgotten more about programming languages than I will ever know, and whose book Thinking in Java helped launch me into a career.
