Spring Framework 6
summary
Spring Framework 6 raises the baseline to Java 17 and Jakarta EE 9, adds first‑class AOT processing and generated runtime hints for GraalVM native image builds, and ships declarative HTTP client annotations plus a proxy factory. Milestone 6.1 prototypes support JDK 21 virtual threads and CRaC checkpoint/restore. Demo builds a native executable ~68 MB that starts in ~46 ms and runs tests inside the image (~48 ms), while native image compilation still takes minutes as a build‑time tradeoff.
