Oracle APEX 26.1 is Here

I'll be upfront: I don't usually get excited about software releases the way some people do. But APEX 26.1 is different. After spending time with it over the past few weeks, I can say with confidence that this one actually changes how we work. The United Codes team has been putting it through its paces, and I wanted to share our collective first impressions before we get too deep into the weeds on individual features.

United Codes Predictions for 2026

I asked the United Codes team what they think is coming in 2026. Their responses ranged from profound to passionate (spoiler: someone really wants Arsenal to win a trophy), but a clear pattern emerged: yes, AI is everywhere (you guessed it 😉), but the real story is about how fast we can learn, adapt, and execute.
