Peak vibe coding

Behind every release are months of obsessing over details. 🚀 While you're building with Spring 7/Boot 4, we’re sharing the "why." This @InfoQ interview covers API versioning, Jakarta EE 11, AI, tooling, and what’s next. Full story: infoq.com/articles/sprin…

Can’t wait! ❤️

Every time I see a tweet saying “I can vibe code this in a weekend” - I think of the slack notification system.. It takes time, persistence and effort to get the details right. Sure, a lot of simple workflows will get vibe coded away. And maybe you can put this in Claude Code and get the code right in one shot. But quality, depth and great systems will still have value and take time. You can’t vibe code lessons. Now and forever.

🍃 @SpringFramework 7.1 will support @⁠MockitoBean and @⁠MockitoSpyBean on test constructor parameters! 🚀 It works with Java constructors, but it's even nicer with Kotlin compact constructors. It also works with so-called "test records" in Java. 🤓 github.com/spring-project…

If you are using Spring Cloud Gateway 4.2.0, there is a new CVE report that impacts that specific version. Please see this security advisory for more information: spring.io/security/cve-2…

🤖 AI feels like magic when you ask it about a framework you've never used. Then you ask it about the code you've lived in for five years and catch mistakes on every line. That's Gell-Mann amnesia. And it's why the fundamentals matter more now, not less.

None of this means these tools aren't useful. They absolutely are. But a hammer doesn't make you a carpenter. And an AI coding tool doesn't make your code good just because it wrote it fast.
