Oklahoma City Java User Group

For over 18 years, the Oklahoma City JUG has provided a space local developers to meet new friends and share their expertise in working on and with a variety of Java/JVM technologies. Our membership is wide and varied, and is open to all. So, then, whether you're a new developer or a mid- to senior-level developer, there's a place for you. If you're a recruiter looking to network or fill a role, there's also a place for you. All we ask is that you come willing to learn and to share.

To get involved, you can look over the list below of our recent updates. You can also click the News link here or in the header to see a complete list.

If you are interested in speaking at the JUG, please contact the Steering Committee at sc@okcjug.org. We'd love to start a conversation with you.

This is a great chance to take a...

Our May meeting has been scheduled, and it should be another great one: Artificial Intelligence!

I know we’ve been down this road before, but I intend to not let it slip this time. :) I’d really like to get this going in SOME fashion. If you have any interest in helping me run the JUG (and I need all the help I can get!), please see our mailing list (or its archive) for mor...

After a too-long absence, the Oklahoma City Java User Group is making a comeback! It’s going to take us a bit to get completely back up to speed, but we’re going to get started then tighten things up as go. That means, for least this month, we’ll be meeting in a conference ro...

Good afternoon, Oklahoma City. It’s been a while since the OKC JUG has met, and we’re trying to fix that. The details are still being working out, but that’s where you come in. As has been the case throughout the history of the JUG, your opinion is desired, and we have an oppor...

It’s been a while since you’re heard from us, and for that we’re sorry. There have been a number of circumstances, not the least of which being COVID, that has knocked us off our game. We are currently working diligently to restart the JUG and, hopefully, return to being a fun ...

The phrase Denotational Semantics is an academic term for mapping programs to mathematical objects as a way to define their meanings. This phrase is not well-known in industry but we use it here to make it clear that this presentation is a shamelss rip off of a talk by Erik Meijer of a similar t...
