3.0.0

Release Highlights

• Use same model and event handler for HTTP servers and clients (allowing the creation of middleware
  also for clients)
• Add 'Before' handlers and short circuit 'On' handlers to improve DX (previously, all matching 'On'
  handlers were executed)
• Exception handlers clear the handled exception to prevent further error processing, exception
  propagation is still possible through a parameter
• 3.x releases will be source compatible (enforced in the build process). Experimental modules are
  excluded and their APIs may change
• Native Image metadata inclusion to ease users' applications native compilation (tests pass in
  native mode at builds)
• Update Jetty adapter to v12
• Add Nima Adapter to take advantage of Java Virtual Threads (experimental)

Future Features

3.x releases will focus on extensions over the core functionality:

• OpenApi contracts generation / enforcement
• REST utilities for working with DTOs and ease integration tests
• Serverless support (FaaS)
• Messaging support (use the event handler to also support message queues)
• New adapters
• New middleware (callbacks / handlers)
• Use annotation processing to allow a Spring / Micronaut DX (optionally)

4.0 release is a long shot and the main goals will be:

• Add asynchronous handlers and support coroutines (partial developments done)
• Support WASM and Native targets (right now, there is only a small proof of concept)
