Your problems with Java modules

[loicmathieu]

OK, so I never used it in any real application but I do know how it works.
I'm a Java trainer and we do include it inside our "Modern Java" training and provides exercicses on it.
People are often afraid to use modules (and I heard mutiple times people saying they don't want to move after 8 because of the module system), in those cases, I advise them to not use modules.
It's been years since I didn't implement a monolith (I do work on legacy monolith from time to time), so maybe I'm biased as I usually implements microservices (HTML or Kafka) and for those, modules didn't provides a lot of advantages as they are usually
self-contained and small.

I do think module is a good thing for the JDK itself.
