JUG World Tour: Quarkus Club (#44‪)‬ Foojay.io, the Friends Of OpenJDK!

Once a month in this podcast, we talk about the history of a Java User Group and the people behind it. We have a special group in this episode as we visit the virtual Quarkus Club. This initiative started less than a year ago and is already one of the biggest groups in the world dedicated to Quarkus.
