Knowledge Sharing

Dear Java developer, We would like to invite you to a physical Java Meetup powerd by Craftsmen in Apeldoorn about Maven's Hidden Secrets and Treasures to speed up your build by Ko Turk and Building maintainable Spring Boot apps with Clean Architecture by Michel Schudel **Location** STOOM Vlijtseweg 114 7317 AG Apeldoorn Movie for route: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8XwbB6APsM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8XwbB6APsM) Maps: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/bHihYysxXp71aQjP7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/bHihYysxXp71aQjP7) **Program** (UTC +1) 17:30 Doors open 18:00 Food & networking 18:45 **Building maintainable Spring Boot apps with Clean Architecture** by Michel Schudel 19:30 Break 19:45 **Maven's Hidden Secrets and Treasures to speed up your build** by Ko Turk 20:30 Networking & drinks 21:15 Doors closed **Building maintainable Spring Boot apps with Clean Architecture** Clean Architecture is about separating concerns within your application to keep it maintainable, scalable, and testable. Some call it onion architecture, others call it hexagonal, but in the end they all aim for the same goal: protecting your domain logic from the messy outside world. But how does this work in practice? In this session, we'll build a Spring Boot application together using the principles of Clean Architecture. We'll use the Spring Boot Test framework for clean integration tests and ArchUnit to ensure our squeaky-clean application stays that way by enforcing architectural boundaries. After this session you've learned what Clean Architecture is, and how you can leverage your own applications with it. **Maven's Hidden Secrets and Treasures to speed up your build** Ahoy, Maven Pirates! Gather around, for I have a treasure of knowledge to share with ye salty dogs. ☠️ Ye be hearin' about this thing called 'Build Caching'? It’s a secret weapon that can make yer ship (build) sail faster than a seagull catchin' the wind! How does it work, ye ask? Well, add an extension to the project file in the "pom" ye mateys call it. But don't think it's all smooth sailin' from there. Nay, ye need to do a bit of work on the pipeline too. Arr, we be talkin' about addin' a remote (cache) server to the settings file, and then ye be sayin' goodbye to them extra (rum with) coffee breaks. ☕️ By makin' a few simple tweaks, we give yer build a mighty fine boost! And ye be learnin' all about them Maven lifecycles too! We will show how to improve yer tests and run them in parallel, like enterin’ a ship. ⚡️ But hear me out, me hearties, for this be no ordinary treasure of knowledge. Nay, this is reserved for a select few, the likes of ye who be joinin' this session. So, keep yer lips sealed, and don't be tellin' a soul about this secret, aye? **Ko Turk** Ko Turk is a Software Architect, Java Engineer, and Community Builder with more than 15+ years of experience in development, architecture, speaking, and building communities.

Welcome to a Meetup about our Heritage! I am happy to facilitate you in conversation about what we have inherited, namely our multicultural society. In these sessions we are going to explore what the impact of living in a multicultural society has on our relating to loving and our love affairs! How does love work in this divers society? Between people from different backgrounds? Do we hold each other to differing standards? What do we have to over come to access love? We do that using subtle conversation methods and even a creative workshop in which we explore our listening! *There is a rise in suppressive love roles that have to do with orthodox values, Tate-ism social media enforcers, and a lack of stories about how Love overcomes differences. Let's create a joyful exchange which deepens our understanding and supports positive imagery about multicultural love affairs!* This meetup will work in a bundle of 4 meets that are going to run 3 times. Meet 1: Introduction Meet 2: History Meet 3: Fundamentals Meet 4: Take away We will meet at Tweede Oosterparkstraat 2-4, 1091 JC Amsterdam ''New Draver''

The plan goes as follows: * 9:30 Meetup Arnhem CS, next to Burger King * 9:53 Train to 's-Hertogenbosch (Den Bosch) * 10:40 Transfer in Den Bosch, second meetup point * 11:08 Train to Maastricht * 12:33 Arrive in Maastricht Those who do not want to go to Valkenburg can stay in Maastricht * 12:41 13-minute train to Valkenburg * ±15:40 Train back to Maastricht * 18:29 Train to Den Bosch * 19:53 2/32 min. transfer in Den Bosch * 20:37/21:07 Arrive in Arnhem While these times are mostly fixed, train disruptions may force us to change the plan.

**Complex Trauma Support Group** Our group is intended for survivors of complex trauma. If you are here, it’s likely that so much of who you are and what you have experienced in this life is actually invisible to most people––to family, society, coworkers, and the people who are around you. We are a peer-led group of survivors creating opportunities for ourselves and others to share our experiences, share support, and build relationships in kind community together. Survivor experiences might include: child sexual abuse, incest, child trafficking, and other experiences of people living with traumatic dissociation and complex PTSD. **What to expect at your first meeting:** Currently, we are offering a bi-monthly in person group at 2:00pm on the first and third Sunday of the month. The only criterion for joining the group is that you are a survivor of trauma wishing to have more kindness in your own life and share kindness with others, and that you agree to practice to group’s relational agreements available for view here: https://www.kindgroups.com/agreements. Joining the group is free of charge. We ask that new people connect with us for 30 minutes on the phone or on zoom before coming to their first group, so that we can determine together that we are a good fit. Our meetings last approximately 90 minutes. Participants are never required to share. You’re also welcome to choose a pseudonym and you will never be asked for private information. You are welcome to leave at any time. The kindness that survivors can share when among others who have survived similar childhood experiences is something we rarely get to experience. Time spent with others who understand even a little bit more about us is a relief. Our hope is to help ourselves and others experience that we are not alone. We wish for our efforts to be a cause of kindness in our own lives and the lives of each other. You can read more about the groups at www.kindgroups.com.
