Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

What if null was an Object in Java?
Fortunately, Uber made tooling for languages with broken type systems

My Thoughts on “Bad Code”
Some patterns arise from language design
* You can't express `T` where `null` is forbidden in the type system so you get NullPointerException everywhere and defensive null checks.
* You express a sum type as a product type because your language does not have sum types .
* Your language doesn't have first class multiple return values (or tuples) so you return extra parameters via out parameters or thread local variables such as `errno`.
* Your language doesn't have exceptions (or algebraic effects) and can't do IO so you have monad transformers.
* Your language doesn't have set-theoretic types so you need hacks like `thiserror` .
* Your language doesn't have stackful coroutines or can't infer async IO for you so you have `async/await` spam or callback hell or "mono's".
* Your language doesn't have exhaustive checks (or pattern matching) so you need a fallthrough case check on switch statements .
* Your language doesn't have algebraic effects, so you need to pass context everywhere.
I know someone will reply about Java's null annotation checking options, so here is one of them: https://github.com/uber/NullAway .

Will Project Valhalla bring Kotlin-like nulls to Java?
If you must use Java, use Uber's Nullaway which gives null safety via Errorprone.

Retrofitting null-safety onto Java at Meta
Does anyone have experience using this at Meta who can compare to https://github.com/uber/NullAway ?

How to use Java Records
A special kind of validation is enforcing that record fields are not null. (Un)fortunately, records do not have any special behavior regarding nullability. You can use tools like NullAway or Error Prone to prevent null in your code in general, or you can add checks to your records:

Java Microservices with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud
An easy way to get a pre-configured Keycloak instance is to use JHipster's jhipster-sample-app-oauth2 application. It gets updated with every JHipster release. You can clone it with the following command:

DevOps For Developers: Continuous Integration, GitHub Actions & Sonar Cloud
To test GitHub Actions, we need a new project which in this case I generated using JHipster with the configuration seen here:
- Anyone using JHipster?
- Looking for professional code bases / boilerplates to check out and learn best practices
-
Micro Frontends for Java Microservices
exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => { const namespace = 'https://www.jhipster.tech'; if (event.authorization) { api.idToken.setCustomClaim('preferred_username', event.user.email); api.idToken.setCustomClaim(`${namespace}/roles`, event.authorization.roles); api.accessToken.setCustomClaim(`${namespace}/roles`, event.authorization.roles); } }

Are there any recommended libraries to make Spring Boot development even faster / easier?
What you maybe asking for is something like vaadin or jhipster which marries the front with the backend. (I don't like them tbh but it worth mentioning)
-
Looking for a ready-to-extend-and-deploy OpenID + Spring REST solution.
You can try this stack https://www.jhipster.tech with generator for mobile app https://github.com/jhipster/generator-jhipster-ionic.
