  • game-of-life-csp

    Game of Life implemented in Java using virtual threads and communicating sequential processes

  • Of course, this is not fully comparable to Akka, but you might find this interesting: https://github.com/ebarlas/game-of-life-csp

  • Caffeine

    A high performance caching library for Java

  • not to distract from your valid points but, when used properly, Caffeine + Reactor can work together really nicely [1].

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • javalin.github.io

    Javalin website source code

  • Counter-example: https://javalin.io/ uses Servlets, and seems to be doing quite fine without annotations.

  • Spock

    The Enterprise-ready testing and specification framework.

  • Well I care a lot that it exists. And many other people I know do as well. Just because you don't seem to like it, you shouldn't imagine everyone else is like you.

    Maybe Grails is no longer used as much (like Rails itself), but Groovy found other usages since then, like https://spockframework.org/ and Jenkins pipelines (https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/syntax/). It's not going anywhere, and I see no reason for anyone to be upset about it.
