IBM COFFEE & CODE EVENT – New York City

Have you ever wondered if you could use the popular IDEs such as Microsoft Visual Studio Code or Eclipse Che to develop applications seamlessly across platforms and programming languages for IBM Z?

Do you wish that you never have to spend hours/days in setting up a development environment and wish you could share your workspace with your peers easily and in a secure fashion?

Are you tired of using the green screen editors for your day to day work?

This session is for you

Come to our session and learn how you can explore the mainframe without ever firing up a green screen. Learn how to leverage some of our newest capabilities such as IBM Z Open Editor – A Microsoft Visual Studio Code extension” to edit and debug your COBOL and PL/I programs. See how you can configure Eclipse Che – a Kubernetes-native cloud IDE and developer collaboration platform built for teams and organizations.

In this session we are going to demonstrate how to deploy and use Eclipse Che on OpenShift. We will be showing you how to use pre-built/custom stacks leveraging our custom Theia IDE, Visual Studio Code extensions and custom templates for workspaces. You will walk away from this session learning several cool features of Eclipse Che and understand the various new capabilities from IBM that will get you started on a cloud native development journey for IBM Z.

We will also introduce you to Zowe.org, an open source project that develops modern graphical tools and APIs allowing you to manage and develop mainframe applications directly from your Macs or PCs. Learn how our modern IDE capabilities are powered by Zowe.
