There are some truly awesome people in the Java community.
@Sharat_Chander is one of them.

He leads by example. Not just in his role at Oracle, but in how he shows up for people.

Shar has been doing this for a long time. 25 years with Java. Supporting Java User Groups, Java Champions, and the wider community. You can tell he really cares. It is not just a job for him.

And then there are the small moments: He had something to take care of during #JavaOne and invited me along. He knew I have a thing for big US cars and country music. So we turned a simple errand into a great experience. Driving around in a huge car, country music on, just enjoying a very American moment you don’t usually get in California.

That meant a lot.

Thank you, Shar. For everything you do for Java. And for the way you show up for people.

Java devs do more than ship features—they manage upgrades, security, and quality too. ⚙️

At #Devnexus, @rodrigograciano from @BNYglobal & @CGuntur from @jpmorgan share how modern tools help teams meet enterprise standards without slowing delivery.

Hi everyone! An ongoing reorganization at my current employer has prompted me to seek for a new role and would appreciate your support.

@itohiro73 @TheDonRaab @NikhilNanivade @motlin @zakhav It was my pleasure and honor to finally meet the awesome @itohiro73 !

[Chandra Guntur @CGuntur]

@brjavaman @JavaOne 😄

[Chandra Guntur @CGuntur]

And ... that is a wrap on another amazing @JavaOne. I had a great time learning networking and presenting (full house). I got pulled into an unconference where I voice my opinions of build tools. Oh, and I got to celebrate my birthday with so many friends.

THANK YOU!

[Chandra Guntur @CGuntur]

@intellijidea @devnexus @belyaev_andrey @andrei_kogun @MaritvanDijk77 Proof that the IntelliJ team was there...

[Chandra Guntur @CGuntur]

A full-house talk at @JavaOne is achievement unlocked! Thank you to all the folk who attended and made the talk a very interactive one!

I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope you all did, too!

[Brayan M. 🇩🇴 @Brayanmnz_]

The line to get into @CGuntur and @eMalaGupta session at @JavaOne’25 😳🤯

[Chandra Guntur @CGuntur]

@antonarhipov I used Junie to convert a Java 8 app to use all new #Java features until Java 24 ... and I did this without prep during a talk at #JavaOne.

I enjoyed using Junie and will find more uses for it.

Good job, @intellijidea !

[Chandra Guntur @CGuntur]

@mkheck @jimgris I managed to take a few photos of Jim, both on his DSLR and some surprise ones on my phone.

Jim is one of the most awesome and humble humans I get to meet at some #Java conferences.

@JavaOne is one such conference.

@jimgris - I love you, brother! 🩵

[Chandra Guntur @CGuntur]

@MaritvanDijk77 @jetbrains @JavaOne I guess I did go rogue. Hope I don't get into a lot of trouble!
