Interview of Cédric Champeau
summary
Micronaut is described as a modern Java framework that shifts work to compile-time annotation processing, eliminating reflection and proxies so apps start much faster and can build a native image with a single native run. Build plugins for Gradle and Maven wire up Docker and native builds; using continuous Gradle mode spawns a Testcontainers database on save so code reloads instantly. Emphasis is on fast functional tests over heavy mocking for real-world feedback.
