Oracle APEX makes it easy to build applications quickly. As projects grow, consistent standards become increasingly important for building applications that are easier to maintain, scale, and support.
With the introduction of APEX 26, APEXLang, and AI-assisted development, those same practices are taking on a new role. The standards we've used for years are becoming the specifications that guide how applications are designed, generated, and evolved.
In this session, we'll look at practical standards that have worked well across real APEX projects, including naming conventions, application architecture, reusable PL/SQL APIs, version control, and integration patterns. We'll then explore how these same practices naturally evolve into specification-driven development, providing the foundation for effective AI-assisted workflows while preserving the architecture and engineering practices that make APEX applications successful.
Whether you're building applications on your own or as part of a larger team, you'll leave with practical ideas that you can apply today, along with a fresh perspective on how APEX developers can take advantage of the next generation of development tools.
