Episode description

In this podcast, we are talking to some of the key people working on different IDEs, Integrated Development Environments. Those are applications that provide tools to computer programmers for software development. An IDE typically consists of at least a source code editor, build automation tools, and a debugger. Let's learn how these tools evolved, and the challenges they face to stay up-to-date with the many evolutions in Java and all other programming languages. And what we can still expect in the future!
