Sessions will be streaming LIVE on Microsoft Learn TV.
Join us on October 27, 28 & 29 from 8:00 AM - 1:15 PM PDT to attend LIVE!
Chat with us and get your questions answered using #JDConf
Our mission to empower every developer on the planet extends to the Java community, and as part of that, we want to welcome Java developers across the globe to our first ever, community-focused Java conference. We rely on Java and its community more than one can imagine. From Minecraft to Azure Big Data services, across LinkedIn and Yammer and into mobile development, we also have Java developers! Come learn from and connect to a diverse and wide range of speakers as well as a sprinkling of our own.
Keep the conversation and learning momentum going by challenging one another to learn more! These challenges not only provide learning opportunities, but they are also great resume builders, opportunities to connect with others in the community, and gain recognition!
Find additional resources on Microsoft Learn and the session calendar.
The JDConf is now virtual! Join us and thousands of others on Learn TV to enjoy the experience from the comfort of your own home, office, or device. The content will be primary streamed over Learn TV, but you can also find us on the YouTube Microsoft Developer Channel and streamed from this website.
The JDConf digital event will be a 3-day event, starting on October 27, 2020 at 8:00 AM PDT, concluding at 1:15 PM PDT. The event will resume for the second day on October 28 at 8:00 AM PDT, ending at 1:15 PM PDT. And the final day of the event is October 29 starting at 8:00 AM PDT and concluding at 1:15 PM PDT.
I am unable to attend the live event - will a recording be available to anyone who RSVP’d or will it only be offered live?
Yes, session and keynote recordings/videos will be available on our Microsoft Developer YouTube Channel (Channel 9) and are typically uploaded within 48–72 hours after the event concludes. Attendees will be notified via email if they opt in to receive event communications.

In all of our interactions, we aspire to embody and champion the below values:
Be friendly and welcoming
- Listen with purpose, create space for others’ communication preferences
- Ask yourself how you can make someone else’s life easier
Be patient
- Remember that people have varying communication styles and preferences
- Recognize that not everyone is using their native language (meaning and tone can be lost in translation)
Be thoughtful
- Think about how others will interpret your words – productive, clear communication requires effort!
- Remember that sometimes it is best to refrain entirely from commenting
Be respectful and inclusive
- Respect differences of opinion
- Seek to build bridges and understand, not condemn or criticize
- Make a conscious effort to include people who differ from you
Be open and curious
- Assume good intent and interpret others’ statements or questions in good faith
- Ask questions to understand, not denounce
- Focus on continuous learning - get better at the things you already know, tackle completely new things, and ask others about their expertise to deepen yours
In Summary:
- Treat everyone with respect, kindness and empathy.
- Use welcoming and inclusive language.
- Be thoughtful in how you communicate in person and online.
- Don’t be destructive or inflammatory.
- Gracefully accept constructive criticism.
