@jarvinenemil actually busy with Micronaut and Kafka myself now, but first trying to make it work on the JVM. Last time I tried make a native image with Kafka it was a known bug preventing it working, but that was about a year ago. It's to bad Micronaut works a lot with annotations, but maybe part of it might be useful from Clojure.
I re-wrote some parts of the kafka library and got it working @gklijs
Nice, maybe there is room for native-friendly Java client in the core library? Currently finishing up the Micronaut code. But works be nice if I could compare native Clojure with native Micronaut.
not sure i follow the remark about annotations - iiuc, they (some?) are possible to do via interop.
Does GraalVM with JS reduce runtime like for Java?
They are, but to be honest it makes no sense to use annotation driven development from Clojure
