JPlus is fully compatible with Java, offering modern language features like null safety, boilerplate code generation and other modern language features to reduce developer burden and maximize productivity.

Notably, there is currently no ‘superset’ language that keeps Java syntax almost intact while extending the language with features like null checks at the language level. JPlus aims to fill this gap, providing a language that existing Java developers can naturally learn and adopt.

    JPlus follows standard Java syntax while aiming to be an “Upgraded Java” by adding features that Java developers consider practically useful in real-world projects. This allows existing Java developers to utilize new features with minimal learning curve. All features are added on top of Java syntax. For example, null-safety syntax (type?, ?.) and boilerplate code generation syntax (apply). As a result, developers can experience an enhanced version of Java while continuing to use existing Java code and libraries without modification. This should clarify exactly where JPlus fits in the ecosystem.
