We compile, run, and debug Java code all the time. But what exactly does the JVM do between compile and run?

ByteByteGo provides tutorials, articles, and resources for learning and mastering the Go programming language, covering topics such as syntax, concurrency, and best practices. Developers can learn about Go programming fundamentals, web development with Go, and building scalable applications using Go's powerful features and standard library.

A newsletter covering several system design topics. The main technical piece explains the JVM lifecycle: how javac compiles source to bytecode, how the class loader subsystem works with parent delegation, the link/verify/prepare/resolve phases, memory layout (heap, method area, per-thread stacks), and execution via interpreter plus JIT compilation. Other sections cover Figma's design-to-code and code-to-design workflows using MCP, a curated list of 12 influential AI research papers, how load balancers work step by step, and a comparison of optimistic vs pessimistic database locking strategies.
