Native Support in Spring Boot 3.0.0-M5

Engineering | September 26, 2022 | ...

The Spring Team has been working on native image support for Spring Applications for quite some time. After 3+ years of incubation in the Spring Native experimental project with Spring Boot 2, native support is moving to General Availability with Spring Framework 6 and Spring Boot 3!

The recent Spring Boot 3.0.0-M5 release marks the first time we’re asking for broader community feedback on our native story.
