Meet the Spring Team

Come meet the Spring team! This year at Devoxx, many maintainers, advocates and contributors will be at the conference, and we’re delighted to meet with our users and members of the community. In this “open mic” session, you’ll have the opportunity to ask us anything about the various Spring projects, our current efforts and ideas for the future, and of course, the soon-to-be-released new generation with Boot 4 and Framework 7.

Whether you’re a Spring veteran or a new user getting started with the project, you are more than welcome to join.
