The title was a bit misleading to me, 'cause I kinda +associated the word "Native" with "Mobile, but in one single language". + +The "Native" part here is actually targeting the result into a GraalVM image +instead of the war tested bytecode. + +It's weird how GraalVM appeared and then disappeared from my radar. It was +touted as a solution for most integration systems and then... nothing. Maybe +with Spring embracing it, it would get some traction again.
