iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Lee Turner @leeturner.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Last week beta 39 of WireMock OSS v4 dropped. This release built on the messaging support already there to add support for Server Sent Events. I have updated the WireMock OSS docker example I have with a simple train departure board demo. github.com/wiremock/wir... github.com/leeturner/wi...

I remember being fascinated by Conways Game of Life when I was younger. How simple rules could generate amazing patterns and 'life'. I realised I had never built one so here is my first attempt at a console based @kotlinlang.org and @micronautfw.bsky.social implementation

Lee Turner @leeturner.bsky.social · 29/01/2026

If you use @micronautfw.bsky.social and @wiremock.bsky.social you should check out wiremock-micronaut by Nahuel Rodríguez. Version 2.0.2 has just been released with updates to WireMock versions so you should now be able to use it with the latest Micronaut 4.x releases. github.com/Nahuel92/wir...

I am mind blown. I asked Claude to port Ratatui to Java, using Gradle, create a demo app and compile it to a native binary. It took 20 minutes. Here's the demo (this is a native binary compiled using GraalVM using the official native build tools plugin). 🫳🎤 /cc @glaforge.dev @maxandersen.xam.dk

A big shout out to Dirk Bolte for his contribution of numeric matchers in WireMock OSS. You can already match numbers in their String representation using equalTo. For matching based on their numeric value, you can now use the following number matchers - wiremock.org/docs/request...

Request Matching

Learn how to match HTTP requests in WireMock using URLs, headers, query parameters, request bodies, JSON, XML, cookies, and advanced matchers including regex, JSONPath, and XPath.
