What we’re about
The Garden State Java User Group, Inc. (formerly the ACGNJ Java Users Group), in continuous operation since February 2001, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides a forum to promote the use of Java platforms, APIs, and language. We strive to facilitate interactive discussions and exchange of ideas relating to the application of Java.
Topics will primarily focus on JVM technologies such as Java EE, Jakarta EE, MicroProfile, Spring, Groovy and Kotlin. Topics on non-JVM technologies such as Meteor, AngularJS, and Rust may occasionally be presented.
We are proud members of the MicroProfile Working Group and the Jakarta EE Ambassadors and have adopted the Jakarta NoSQL specification.
All meetings are generally held on the second Tuesday of the month, but may change due to speaker availability. In-person meetings are usually held at Drew University in Madison, New Jersey. On-line meetings are held via our YouTube channel.

We are pleased to announce that Scott Selikoff, one of the GSJUG leaders, will present, "Certified Java: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About New Features in Java 21 and Were Afraid to Ask."
Abstract:
This talk will review all new features from Java 17 and 21 for which you may not be familiar. It will also talk about how to get certified in Java, including the kinds of questions the exam is likely to ask and what you need to do to prepare.
One copy of the Scott's new Java 21 Certification will be raffled to those who attend in-person.
As usual, pizza and soft drinks will be served and a license to IntelliJ IDEA will be raffled off along with a copy of Scott's book.
