Developer Productivity Engineering for Open-Source Communities (sponsored by Gradle)

Developer Productivity Engineering (DPE) is a fast-emerging software development practice that leading software development companies like Netflix, Airbnb, and LinkedIn and open-source communities like Spring, Micronaut, and Apache have already adopted. DPE enhances developer productivity via tooling that surfaces deep, actionable insights into the developer toolchain and provides cumulative acceleration technologies that enable significantly faster feedback cycles.

SOBO: A Feedback Bot to Nudge Code Quality in Programming Courses

Sofía Bobadilla (Student)

Up to date, there are several research regarding automatic feedback tools and the potential of bots for education. One missing area is the evaluation of this tool when they are implemented on University level courses. SOBO is a bot made to automatically provide feedback on code quality to undergraduate students. SOBO has been deployed in a course at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden helping over 130+ students on its first academic year.

LSP doesn't cut it! Or does it?

Sebastian Zarnekow (Self-employed)

Regarding editor support for programming languages, the language server protocol (LSP) has evolved into a de-facto solution in recent years.

15 Years of Xtext

Sebastian Zarnekow (Self-employed)

Since its inception in 2008, the Xtext framework has become a de-facto standard when it comes to domain-specific languages that run on the Java virtual machine. Its mature editing support in Eclipse, VS Code, and other LSP-based editors has proven a success factor for its adaption throughout different industries. Truth be told, it became quiet around Xtext in the past years. Development is stalled, even basic maintenance is in jeopardy, and it's hard to predict its future.
