Jim Baker described Jython. Jython is an implementation of Python that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
Jython compiles to bytecode, integrates nicely with the rest of the Java platform, and provides a wonderful
environment for trying ideas out directly in its read-eval-print loop (REPL).
With Jython, you can write simple scripts or large projects, all easily accessing the power of Java.
Jim Baker has over 15 years of professional software development experience, focusing on business intelligence
and high-performance web applications. He co-founded both Empact Solutions, raising $10M in VC financing,
and BizLogix. He is now a consultant at bivio Software in Boulder, Colorado.
Jim also leads the Front Range Pythoneers, a merry band of Python enthusiasts.
He is a graduate of Winter Park High School, Harvard, and Brown.
