Java Versions Cheat Sheet as PDF – overview of all versions from Java 10 to Java 26

Who is this Cheat Sheet for?

This Cheat Sheet is perfect for you if...

… you want to upgrade:
but don’t yet have an overview of what has changed since your last Java version.

… you want to look things up quickly:
which Java version introduced a specific feature.

… you want to convince your team:
with a compact overview of all the important Java updates.

Who’s Behind the Cheat Sheet?

I’ve been working with Java for 30 years as a developer, CTO, trainer, author, and speaker – and have helped companies modernize complex Java systems and develop their teams sustainably.

With HappyCoders.eu, I’ve built one of the most widely read Java blogs in the German-speaking world and regularly speak at conferences and user groups.

Want to go deeper?

My blog covers a wide range of Java, software architecture, and performance topics – from foundational concepts to advanced patterns.

If you want to dive deeper, take a look at my trainings: hands-on, easy to follow, and directly applicable to your day-to-day project work. Instead of pure theory, I focus on principles that help you write code that’s better, more maintainable, and more performant in the long run.
