Enhanced Streams Processing with Kotlin’s Sequence Interface
Data structures are an intrinsic part of every programming language, yet Java’s Stream interface lacks vital operations and its complex approach to extensibility gave rise to alternative libraries such as jOOλ and Guava. This article provides an alternative approach that can be easily integrated in any Java project using Kotlin's Sequence interface.

Java Feature Spotlight: Pattern Matching
Java SE 14 (March 2020) introduced a limited form of pattern matching as a preview feature, which becomes a permanent feature in Java SE 16 (March 2021). The first phase of pattern matching is limited to one kind of pattern (type patterns) and one language construct (instanceof), but this is only the first installment in a longer feature arc.

Brahmos, a New, Small, React-Like UI Framework with Concurrent Rendering -- Q&A with Sudhanshu Yadav
Brahmos implements the known React APIs (hooks, context, concurrent mode, and more) with a different and potentially faster method that also leverages a standard feature of JavaScript: template literals. Brahmos is among the very few UI frameworks that implements the experimental concurrent mode API sponsored by React. Other frameworks may be waiting out, or discarding the feature entirely.
