August in Review
Catch Up on Articles from The Pragmatic Programmers
In August, we featured a number of articles about functional programming as a lead-up to the beta release of Functional Programming in Java, Second Edition by Venkat Subramaniam. If you are reading the book, we invite you to contribute your thoughts during the beta process.
We re-released some articles about JRuby from Erin Dees, who was in the Author Spotlight in August. Be sure to stop by DevTalk to participate in the Ask Me Anything (AMA) with the author.
We featured a series of forward-looking (dare I say premonitory) articles from the archives of PragPub by Johanna Rothman and Mark Kilby about successful geographically distributed agile teams. Johanna has a new book due out in September, so stay tuned.
We also published a number of articles from our book authors and our editors.
Following are all the stories from August 2022. Thank you for reading!
