Unlike large commercial conferences NetBeans Day is a community organized event. It is loosely based around a central theme of NetBeans that supports a very wide range of languages, frameworks and techniques. The event is free to attend (with refreshments) and targeted at professional software developers, students and anyone with a general curiosity.<\/p>\n<p>You can look forward to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Demo-oriented sessions, with as few slides as possible. Lots of code!<\/li>\n<li>Many useful takeaways and practical Tips and tricks.<\/li>\n<li>Sessions for Desktop, server and beyond using Java and non-Java languages.<\/li>\n<li>Tips and tricks for using NetBeans in the classroom.<\/li>\n<li>Lots of opportunities to speak to fellow developers and users.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Schedule<\/h2>\n<p>More sessions are planned and will be added to the list.

We\u2019ve mostly had success, but we\u2019ve also had our share of failures and growing pains. In this case study, I\u2019m going to talk about how we started out with WordPress in 2010, migrated our main website a few years later to a multi-site install. This case study will showcase our development of WordPress sites using NetBeans, how we choose plugins and tools, and which themes we\u2019ve come to rely on.<br \/>\n<br style=\"clear:both;\"\/>\n<h4>Kenneth Fogel<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-40\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dawsoncollege.qc.ca\/netbeansday\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/156\/Ken-Fogel.jpg\" alt=\"Ken Fogel\" width=\"180\" \/><em><strong>IoT without the Breadboard<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>This session will look at an alternative to developing IoT systems on a breadboard. The Grove system replaces the breadboard with a Grove Pi+ circuit board that can connect to a Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Edison and others. Sensors, actuators and devices are pre-mounted on small circuit boards and connect to the Grove Pi+ with cables that have plugs. Java and NetBeans are the best environment for working with the Grove.<br \/>\n<br style=\"clear:both;\"\/>\n<h4>Ioannis (John) Kostaras<\/h4>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-45\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dawsoncollege.qc.ca\/netbeansday\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/156\/ioannis_kostaras.png\" alt=\"Ioannis Kostaras\" width=\"180\" \/>\n<p><em><strong>Java 9 and NetBeans 9<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>In this session John will present some of the exciting new features that will be part of Java 9 focusing on its new modular architecture.

In this talk I will illustrate my journey on how I was able to interest kids to Java programming.<\/p>\n<p>Through examples I will demonstrate how I got them excited about learning to code using Greenfoot and show how simple it is to engage them in programming by creating a fun game while learning basic concepts of software engineering.<\/p>\n<p>This session is for Java programmers, who would like to share their passion with a younger generation.<br \/>\n<br style=\"clear:both;\"\/>\n<h4>Constantin Drabo<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dawsoncollege.qc.ca\/netbeansday\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/156\/constantin-674x640.png\" alt=\"constantin\" width=\"180\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-53\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dawsoncollege.qc.ca\/dawscon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/156\/constantin-674x640.png 674w, https:\/\/www.dawsoncollege.qc.ca\/dawscon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/156\/constantin.png 759w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 674px) 100vw, 674px\" \/> <em><strong>Java 9 JShell<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>In this session we will learn what JShell is and how it can be useful to quickly adopt Java and how to use it as a test tool.
