C# guy here. I'm interested in coding some Java. What are some cool applications for me to check out?

Of example, in C# you have stuff like

• Blazor Webassembly where one can use C# to write code on the web instead of Javascript.
• Linq for set based operations in C#
• Entity Framework which is an ORM
• Visual Studio and its integration with Azure (nice for deployments)

Those are some of my favorite things about that ecosystem. What are your favorite things about Java?

It could be things about the language itself, but Im more interested in cool libraries and applications in the Java world.
