Hands-on-lab: Creating Game with Roblox, Quarkus, IoT devices, musical instruments and AI
Speaker(s): Daniel Oh
Day/Time: Workshop A - September 3 at 9:00 AM
Abstract: During this workshop we will teach how to create Roblox games integrated with a Java / Quarkus backend to manage teams, quiz, coding challenges and also cool integrations with IoT sensors, musical instruments using Fast Fourier Transform with Java / Processing.org and also camera with AI to detect objects in the real players. We will explain the basics of Roblox development and show detailed architecture and challenges we have integrating Roblox with AWS Cloud. All the code is available to anyone that want to create your own game, demos for booths and amazing integration between virtual world and real world and vice-versa. All the participant will create: A Roblox game with quiz and coding challenge A Quarkus backend to manage quiz / teams / other data in a noSQL database Deployment backend in AWS Lambda with AWS DynamoDB and Amazon Codewhisperer Optional: Test FFT integration with processing.org Optional: use camera with AI to recognize objects in real players (if the player is wearing a hat, then the avatar inside the game wear a hat) AWS Temporary Accounts will be provided - "all you can eat" accounts for 12 hours.

Why You Should Use Quarkus For Your Next Project
Speaker(s): Sebastian Daschner
Day/Time: Room 6 - September 4 at 11:40 AM
Abstract: In this session, we'll have a look why you want to try out "supersonic, subatomic Java" with Quarkus. If you're familiar with enterprise development with Spring or Java/Jakarta EE, you'll be delighted to see the effective way of working that Quarkus provides. We'll why coding with Quarkus not only makes our work more effective but is also fun. We will have a look at the coding experience, turnaround times, Quarkus' dev mode, container & Kubernetes support, persistence, and templating. Join us for this live-coding-only session!

A day in the life of a Quarkus developer
Speaker(s): Martin Stefanko
Day/Time: Room 7 - September 5 at 3:40 PM
Abstract: If you are a Java developer, chances are you’ve already heard about Quarkus. You may have heard about the developer joy that Quarkus provides. But what exactly is it? How does it enhance your day-to-day tasks? What benefits and shortcuts does it offer for your work? These are the questions we will address in this talk. During this live-coded session, we will create a new Quarkus project and demonstrate how it can expedite the development of Java microservices by leveraging its multitude of out-of-the-box features. The session will be interactive, so if there is something specific you want to see, we will gladly demonstrate it. Our primary focus, however, will be showcasing typical user application development scenarios, including database integration, remote connections using both blocking and asynchronous APIs, and implementing security measures. Naturally, we cannot overlook the crucial aspects of packaging applications into containers and deploying them to the cloud. Quarkus is a framework that places developer productivity as a top priority, fostering a sense of joy throughout the development process. You will witness the remarkable things we can achieve with Quarkus within the given time. By the end of the session, you will truly grasp the essence of Quarkus' development joy.

Taming Kubernetes: Streamlining Inner-loop Development for Distributed Systems
Speaker(s): Kevin Dubois
Day/Time: Room 5 - September 5 at 3:40 PM
Abstract: You’ve all been there, haven’t you? You are developing an application that needs to connect to something else in order to function properly, yet you can’t (or don’t want to) run that “something else” on your local developer laptop. What are some of the tools and technologies that could help in this situation? In this talk, you will learn about some potential solutions you can use to help tackle some of these challenges by either running services locally in a more efficient way or by interacting with external dependencies/systems remotely. You should come away from this session with some new ideas on how to work with distributed applications using technologies such as Docker Compose, Podman Desktop, TestContainers, Quarkus Dev Services, Remote Development, Skupper, and Eclipse JKube.
