Configuring GitHub's Linguist to Improve Repository Language Reporting
For example, one of my repositories, InteractiveBinPacking, is an educational tool implemented in Java, with a few HTML files for contents of dialog boxes, etc, and also has a directory of example assignments with LaTeX source to enable course instructors to easily customize assignments. HTML and LaTeX are both classified as markup languages, and Java obviously as a programming language so those are all included by default, so a language chart with Java, HTML, and TeX makes sense. So far, no configuration necessary. I published a short journal article about the tool in the Journal of Open Source Education. That journal conducts the peer review within the repository itself, with a paper directory holding a Markdown file with the content of the paper, and usually a BibTeX file with the citation data for the references of the paper. Markdown is automatically excluded as prose, which is fine here. However, the BibTeX file would by default be included in the TeX count. The directory of example assignments in LaTeX is part of the purpose of the repository, but this BibTeX file is in a sense part of the documentation of the tool.

Java 20 / JDK 20: General Availability
Here are some resources I've found helpful and have read or are on my backlog to catch up with these developments:
- https://github.com/wesleyegberto/java-new-features (terse, includes links to JEPs, good jumping off point)
- https://github.com/winterbe/java8-tutorial (quick tour through features of Java 8)
- https://winterbe.com/posts/2018/09/24/java-11-tutorial/ (same for Java 11)
Books:
- Java 8 in Action / Modern Java in Action (Raoul-Gabriel Urma, Alan Mycroft, Mario Fusco; 2014 and 2018 respectively)
- The Well-Grounded Java Developer (Martijn Verburg, Benjamin Evans, Jason Clark; 2022) - not specifically focused on new features but does cover them in the context of going deeper into Java and the JVM.

Otherwise, learning Maven has been really important. As for learning the language, I liked Winterbe's guides. Here's one. https://github.com/winterbe/java8-tutorial
