Explore the new Java programming language features and APIs introduced in Java 10 through Java 13. Java 13 Revealed is for experienced Java programmers looking to migrate to Java 13. Author Kishori Sharan begins by covering how to use local variable type inference to improve readability of your code and time-based release versioning of the Java platform to understand the Java release strategy.
