We’re back with another episode about developer tooling and this time we’re diving into the world of Language Servers!

We have the pleasure to have on stage Gorkem Ercan, the CTO of Jozu and member of the Eclipse Foundation Board. Gorkem will walk us through his journey in the world of Language Servers, from writing Visual Studio Code plugins to building both the Java and the YAML Language Server.

We’ll also talk a lot about Eclipse IDE, the Eclipse Foundation, and we’ll touch also on his new project: Kitops.
