With @geoand86.bsky.social, we have been busy integrating Project Leyden into Quarkus and improving startup time. This is the first of two blog posts presenting this work. Feedback welcome!

Quarkus 3.31, released this month, will be the culmination of months of work making Quarkus applications builds faster. Learn more about it in this blog post by @gsmet.bsky.social: quarkus.io/blog/buildin...

Hello @spacefox.fr , j'essayais de te contacter pour discuter de ton article et ton générateur d'applications Quarkus mais tu n'es pas évident à débusquer, d'autant que ton GitLab a l'air down pour le moment :). Si tu as ce message, je veux bien que tu me contactes, merci !
