Cult.Repo — the team behind cinematic documentaries on React, Node.js, Kubernetes, and more — brings its latest film to Devoxx UK for its world premiere.
Spring traces the full arc of one of open source's most consequential projects: from its origins as a quiet rebellion against enterprise Java complexity, through the paradigm shift of Spring Boot, into the microservices era and the cloud-native architectures that now run beneath some of the world's most critical software.
It's a story about technical vision, community, and what it takes to stay relevant across two decades of relentless change.
After the film, there will be a panel featuring Josh Long, Marit van Dijik, and Steve Poole.
Doors open at 6:30pm
Film starts at 7pm
Panel at 8pm
