Explore how MCP transforms JVM tools like WildFly and Ghidra into LLM-driven operations, diagnostics, and reverse engineering servers. Discover how agents can now run diagnostics, decompile malware, and even query applications—all via chat.
If you are using AI coding assistants or agents, they will only be as helpful as their knowledge of the libraries you use. LLMs know a lot about the world from their training set, but that might not include a library's documentation at all or include an older version. Agents can browse the Internet looking for more recent information, but this might not be precise enough. For instance, the web might be littered with outdated examples, and the latest information might only be available in the official docs. Hence, if you are a library author, how do you prepare your documentation for consumption by coding agents?
Java has come a long way on ARM. Runtime improvements, smarter garbage collectors, and better vector performance now make it a solid fit. CI/CD pipelines work without extra effort. This guide walks through: - real-world benchmarks - examples from AWS and Google Cloud - gives hands-on advice for tooling, deployment, and compatibility If you're weighing cost, speed, or sustainability, this will help you judge whether a move to ARM makes sense—and how to pull it off cleanly.
In this article, we will examine common monorepo challenges and show how Bazel helps turn a large codebase into a more manageable, efficient ecosystem. Also, we included a link to a working repository where the ideas described here are implemented.
Being software engineering consultants we have a unique perspective on how different developer experience tools work with our client’s tech stacks. We have gathered a collective experience of our engineers and prepared this list of 9 developer experience tools that our clients and their developers found helpful.
Code organization is easy when work is done in a small team, and the codebase is not yet extensive. However, as the project's scope grows and new sub-teams appear, the question of how to subdivide and manage the growing codebase becomes increasingly important.
This article will guide you through a notable subset of Bazelʼs querying features backed by examples. These are useful for debugging, exploration, and tooling. We’ll start with basic Bazel queries with target patterns, then we will move on to demonstrating Bazel aquery and cquery.
Developer Experience (DX) has emerged as a crucial factor in the success of any software development project. At its core, DX represents the overall happiness, productivity, and ease with which developers can create high-quality work. But how can you truly measure the DX of your project?
In this article, we will take a closer look at 3 IDEs, that we believe to be the best in their own right, and a few others that are worth taking a closer look at. We will explain their unique features and the types of projects for which they are best suited.
Discover the advantages of Bazel over CMake and chose the best build tool.
Optimize production planning with VirtusLab's R&D approach, integrating APS techniques for better resource utilization and cost reduction.
For C++ projects, the build system must handle complex dependencies, ensure fast build times, and support cross-platform development. Bazel is a strong contender in this space.
