Introduction to Ceylon

"Ceylon is a new programming language designed to execute on the JVM. This session's speakers are fans of Java and its ecosystem, but they think the language and class libraries, designed more than 15 years ago, are no longer the best foundation for a range of today's business computing problems, so they have proposed a new language that includes many improvements to Java while sticking to the Java philosophy that people love, which made it so popular.

This session provides an introduction to Ceylon and shows you its main features and the ongoing progress of the compiler, IDE, and tools as well as the community behind it."
