What's New in Java?
Java 17 is an important milestone since this is slated as a long term support (LTS) release. Apart from this designation, more importantly, it is in Java 17 that we are starting to glimpse how the building blocks of earlier releases glue together to provide the pattern programming paradigms. Essentially, the "why" a particular feature/building block exists questions start finding the answers in this version. And this indeed is a huge step for Java as well as Java programmers.
