Building Native Images with GraalVM and Spring Native on Apple's M1 Architecture

Engineering | Josh Long | March 23, 2022 | ...

It finally happened! They did it! They did it just in time for me to get on the road and start building applications on the road with my shiny new laptop, too! JOY!! Oracle and the GraalVM team released GraalVM and the GraalVM native image capability for Apple M1! I've been waiting for this day for so, so, so long! I bought the first Apple M1 the day of the announcement way back in 2020 (does anybody remember that far back? That was, meteorologically speaking, the early pandemic period).

Spring for GraphQL 1.0 Milestone 6 Released

Engineering | Rossen Stoyanchev | March 22, 2022 | ...

On behalf of everyone involved, I'm pleased to announce the availability of the sixth and final milestone of Spring for GraphQL on the way to 1.0. Our next stop is RC1 in 4 weeks, followed by the GA on May 17.

GraphQL Client

A GraphQL client is something we identified as a goal quite early on. It's issue number 10 from 336 at present in the issue tracker, but we viewed testing support as higher priority and so the GraphQL Tester came first and has been available from the start.

The Tester did prove valuable and popular, but we knew we had to fully explore the client before 1.0 as the two are…
