Joining Anton for the first session is Daniil Tsarev, Software Developer at JetBrains. With over a decade of experience working with the Spring ecosystem, Daniil previously developed a Spring-based full-stack framework for enterprise solutions. Now, he’s focused on boosting developer productivity, building tools that make life easier for developers everywhere.
Together, Anton and Daniil will bring their combined expertise for a deep, practical dive into Spring development and AI agent design.
Session 1: See through Spring in IntelliJ IDEA
Spring Boot might look like magic, but under the hood, it’s all logic — and now you’ll see it clearly. Anton and Daniil will show you how to unlock the full power of the Spring Debugger in IntelliJ IDEA. Learn how to trace property values, debug bean injections, track transactions, and explore your database — all from inside your IDE. This is a must-attend for anyone working with Spring who wants to debug smarter and faster.
Session 2: Building AI Agents in Kotlin
In this session, Anton will walk you through how to build your own tool-using AI agent with Koog, JetBrains’ lightweight, Kotlin-native framework. You'll learn how to design agent workflows, register tools, and integrate APIs like OpenAI and Google. By the end, you’ll have built a functional coding agent — capable of generating, testing, and improving code — and gained real, hands-on knowledge to create your own LLM-powered automation.
🍕 Free pizza & drinks included!
