Foojay Podcast #48: JUG Oberpfalz, JCON Conference, and JAVAPRO Magazine
May 06, 2024Once a month, in the Foojay Podcast, we discuss the history of a Java User Group and the people behind it.
In this episode, we are in Oberpfalz, Germany, for a particular reason: the organizers of the local JUG are the same people responsible for the JCON conference in Cologne in a few weeks.
Let's also learn more about this Java community in Germany!
