Jfokus 2013: Java8 and functional programming
In februari this year I attended Jfokus 2013. In a earlier post I talked about responsive web design which catched my intrest during Jfokus. In this post I will talk about another subject that catched my intrest, java8 and functional programming.

Att börja jobba som juniorkonsult
Tänkte dela med mig av mina erfarenheter från första halvåret som juniorkonsult samt komma med tips till alla som står och gläntar på dörren till yrkeslivet. Efter att ha studerat datorspelsutveckling på DSV samt läst en del fristående kurser kände jag att det var dags att ge mig ut i arbetslivet. Efter 4 år av universitetsstudier började jag därför i Kentors java-team hösten 2013. Omställningen från det akademiska till yrkeslivet var minst sagt chockerande till en början. Tempot upplevde jag som mycket högre och jag fick verkligen anstränga mig i början för att ta in allt nytt.
En ny Kentorblogg har fötts!
Nu har även Lars Wennerholm, Seniorprojektledare på Kentor, börjat skriva en blogg. Lars har många års erfarenhet av projektledning och krav i IT branschen, och vi lär nog ha många intressanta inlägg att se fram emot framöver!
Congratulations to Team Java’s two new Senior Consultants!
Today, Martin Westman and Johnne Adermark were promoted to the role of Senior Consultant at Kentor. This is an important role in Kentor’s organisation. Our Senior Consultants are not only experts in their fields, but they also play a key role in pre-sales work as well as competence development and mentoring our younger consultants. Martin and Johnne have both worked at Kentor for several years and have continually shown their dedication and resolve to making Kentor not only profitable but also in helping to advance and improve the way that we work with Java. Once again, congratulations to them both!
Jfokus 2013: Responsive web design
Last week I attended Jfokus 2013 with my Kentor-collegue, Lotten Holm Goya. Just as last year it was inspiring, fun and rewarding. Some of my favorite talks were Design Patterns in modern JVM Languages by Venkat Subramaniam, An app is not enough by Joakim Kemeny and the keynote by Dan North. In this post I will talk about Responsive Web Design presented in the “An app is not enough” talk by Joakim Kemeny. At the end I will also link to a working example I made to test these principles.
OpenEJB
An open source, embedded, lightweight, easy to configure EJB Container and EJB Server. Using OpenEJB turned out to be the salvation when developing EJB applications. Even if your requirement is not to start with the test first approach you still need to run your EJB class and can’t wait until to deploy. And deployment is not so fast as well unless you use special tools like JRebel or so on. You can find more information on web about OpenEJB and if there is something better than that. But when you have decided to use OpenEJB then you could face some problems which I took few hours for me to fix. Anyway let’s slide through the problems. Read more…
Vaadin Framework
is a Java web application framework. It is designed for creating rich and interactive applications that run in the browser, without any plugins. No HTML, XML or JavaScript necessary just like GWT. GWT applications run in the browser, while Vaadin applications run on the server using GWT as a “rendering engine” on the browser side, so you can combine Vaadin and GWT. Read more…
