We are pleased to announce that [Eric Deandrea](https://gsjug.org/profiles/eric-deandrea.html) will be our special guest for the first (of two) December meetings. He will present "**Quarkus for Spring Developers**."

Abstract:

In this session, Eric will show concepts and conventions familiar to Spring developers and how those same concepts and conventions can be implemented in Quarkus, all while highlighting similarities and differences between them. Additionally, he will show similarities and differences in how testing is done, highlighting Quarkus Dev Services.

This session will be mostly live coding while minimizing the amount of slides. Eric will introduce an existing Spring application with a full test suite and build a Quarkus equivalent version of it, live.
