Presenter: Karsten Thoms & Holger Schill

Host: Stephanie Swart

Abstract:
Xtext 2.14 is the release for Eclipse Photon and comes with an impressive set of new features (see release notes). With full support for Java 9 & 10, JUnit 5, Gradle 4.7, Tycho 1.2 and LSP 3.7 we are pleased to support more platforms than ever. Furthermore, Xtext is an early adopter of Eclipse Photon’s new Code Mining API, while staying backward compatible to Eclipse Luna.

In this session you will learn about all the awesome new stuff and why you should upgrade immediately. Even if you are not an Xtext user right now, you will become one after this session.
