Java Modules and the Java Platform Module System (JPMS) enhance modularity, encapsulation, and maintainability in Java applications. Introduced in Java 9, JPMS allows developers to organize code into well-defined modules with controlled dependencies, which helps mitigate issues like JAR conflicts and improves application performance and security. The chapter covers the structure of modules, the module-info.java descriptor, and various directives such as requires and exports, along with the benefits and limitations of the new system.
