For our first podcast for 2020, we caught up with Niall McLoughlin & Stuart Greenless to discuss the Java scene in Belfast, the JUG meetup (Java User Group) and their plans for 2020.

What is Java?

'Java was designed to have the look and feel of the C++ programming language, but is simpler to use and enforces an object-oriented programming model. Java can be used to create complete applications that may run on a single computer or be distributed among servers and clients in a network.' - theserverside.com
