    Hello,

    @smthelusive would like to write an article on this subject. Natalia, if possible, can you please share an outline on what you plan to write?

    Thank you

    Hi Ana Maria,

    I think it would be good to split it into two parts: one for Method Handles, and a separate one devoted to Var Handles.

    For the Method Handles, I suggest this title: Introduction to Method Handles

    Suggested outline:

    • What are Method Handles
    • Access checking
    • Method Handle lookup & invocation (might split it further into lookup and invocation subparts)
    • Accessing fields
    • Working with arrays
    • Method Handles vs Reflection
    • Conversion between Reflection API and Method Handles
    • Handling exceptions
    • Method Handle transformations

    Please let me know if I can proceed with this or if there are any suggestions. Thanks!

    Hi @carimura, this is in progress. I'm intending to create a PR in the coming days.
