Trouble with sbt-native-packager
sbt-assembly is still my go-to. So what I'd prefer is the combination of sbt-assembly (to build my .jar that I can just java -jar anytime I want) and sbt-jib (to construct my OCI image including my assembly .jar for deployment in some container orchestration environment).
- sbt-assembly 2.0.0-RC1 released

SBT error when running package application: java.lang.RuntimeException: No main class detected.
You may also use sbt-assembly to produce an uber JAR that embeds the Scala stdlib together with your code, which means that now for running your program you only need a JRE like java -jar app-assembly.jar. This option is great because now if you start adding dependencies to your project those are also included in this massive JAR.

Building native images and compiling with GraalVM and sbt
With the sbt-assembly plugin you can create JAR-files with all of its dependencies (fat JARs). sbt assembly creates this target/scala-2.12/apply-at-vdb-assembly-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar which has a size of around 42MB:

coursier - Pure Scala Artifact Fetching
sbt-docker - Create Docker images directly from sbt
sbt-release - A release plugin for sbt
tut - doc/tutorial generator for scala
sbt-doctest - Doctest for scala
sbt-dependency-check - SBT Plugin for OWASP DependencyCheck. Monitor your dependencies and report if there are any publicly known vulnerabilities (e.g. CVEs). :rainbow:
sbt-buildinfo - I know this because build.sbt knows this.
