Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Record Patterns point to Java language designers losing their compass
Record patterns are one step on the path to general pattern matching utility. The bigger building block is general deconstructors. I recommend reading Functional Transformation of Immutable Objects by Brian Goetz. The idea of "withers" shown there requires deconstructors:

Where does the dislike/hate for Java come from?
This kind of pattern matching is discussed in the design notes: https://github.com/openjdk/amber-docs/blob/master/site/design-notes/patterns/pattern-match-object-model.md

Making Lenses Practical in Java
True, but that only pushes the question of value down the line.
I'm curious about lenses because Java did have a serious problem that required a solution: working with "simple" data correctly was difficult. The chosen solution was ADTs, so we did buy into that. But the approach being explored for transforming records (https://github.com/openjdk/amber-docs/blob/master/eg-drafts/...) only works one level at a time rather than for an entire path. So I wonder how valuable it would be to have a solution for paths. If the answer is that it's mostly valuable for an approach we haven't bought into yet, then we might not need to consider it just yet.

How I got involved in the Rust community
Just a heads up, something like that spread operator is actually coming sooner or later to java: https://github.com/openjdk/amber-docs/blob/master/eg-drafts/...
Pattern matching (for records) is already a preview feature.

Consuming and Testing third party API's using Spring Webclient
The above class maps the json data to a java object we can work with. We use Lombok to generate constructors, getters and setters for our code and the Jackson Project to handle serialization and deserialization of json to pojo . We know the response is an array of objects representing the coffee and so above data structure is fit for this.

💻 7 Open-Source DevTools That Save Time You Didn't Know to Exist ⌛🚀
Almost a decade ago, I started reducing my boilerplate (and saving time with Lombok. It made my life much easier, simple as that. Ever since I've been looking into finding the smoothest solutions for saving time rather than handling all of it myself.

How to prevent NullPointerExceptions in Java
Lombok is a widely used library that simplifies Java code. The @NonNull annotation helps enforce non-null parameters, generating appropriate null checks:

Feedback on a new annotation processor api
I gotta agree with /u/rzwitserloot I don't see anything in the lombok repo that indicates they have their "own compiler". I see the "reaching into javac internals" but that's it.

Does any tooling exist for Java to add @NotNull to every parameter, return type, field, etc. by default?
i looked into that and found this: https://github.com/projectlombok/lombok/issues/2310

Would this OpenJDK proposal make Java easier to learn?
Funny enough; /u/rzwitserloot is the author of Lombok, one of the most widely used Java libraries in the world. So it's not really some kind of random-ass Redditor they're having a discussion with either.

Kotlin : A Java developer's perspective
This removes the need to add the 'Project Lombok' library (and going through a phase of installing it in your Eclipse IDE; old school devs know what I am talking about) and speeds up development time. Java 14 added a new feature of 'Records' which allows you to do the same, but it doesn't offer a 'copy' method to ease your object creation and also enforces the 'final' keyword for variables making them immutable.

X-Pipe - A connection manager and remote file explorer. Let me know what you think!
I get the main criticisms of Java, i.e. its verbosity and the requirement for a lot of boilerplate code, and understand why some people switched to Kotlin. But by using libraries such as lombok you can get rid of most of it and suddenly the incentives for switching aren't that big anymore. And in the end it's all JVM bytecode anyways.

I usually use this... https://projectlombok.org/
What are some alternatives?

JHipster - JHipster, much like Spring initializr, is a generator to create a boilerplate backend application, but also with an integrated front end implementation in React, Vue or Angular. In their own words, it "Is a development platform to quickly generate, develop, & deploy modern web applications & microservice architectures."
