How to Collect Pieces of Data
Pieces, a new JavaScript library I have created, takes these two problems of routing and page transitions and tackles them together. After all, they're both concerned with what happens when the app changes from one view to another. The idea is that the developer creates the individual pages and lets Pieces worry about everything involved in changing between them.

Build Great Native CLI Apps in Java with Graalvm and Picocli
Compared to other choices, Java is not that convenient for creating simple command-line driven apps - largely due to the need to distribute a sizable runtime. The combination of GraalVM and Picocli aims to change that, by providing native compilation alongside an easy, modern way to handle command-line args.

Functional UI (Framework-Free at Last)
Functional UI is a set of techniques which rely heavily on functional programming to develop user interface applications. While deceptively simple, functional UI techniques are surprisingly powerful. Functional UI directly reflects the application's specifications, allows developers to unit-test user scenarios, and UI frameworks become mere libraries. Framework-free at last!
