It’s verbose but shorter, or simpler with kotlin
Relies on annotation. It feels weird, but that’s the magic works. Let it cook.
The configurations represented by .yml, .properties (gradle / groovy), .xml, .graphqls located in project/src/main/resources/
test-resources sometimes helpful, sometimes not.
Compile time I think slightly below golang, even with rust i think kotlin are on par with rust.
Should be powerful when scaling, but in terms of productivity golang still on top.
Me Ok, 8/10. The defining factor is that the debug/log message. Easier to understand. As for comparison, I think nodejs is hellish.
