Cloud-Native Dev Tools: Bringing the cloud back to earth
summary
Practical checklist for local cloud-native Java work: use Open Liberty or alternative runtimes with dev mode with container integration to get hot reload, automatic rebuilds and an IDE debug port; generate clients from OpenAPI and use LSP-for-MP / LSP-for-Jakarta editors for code completion; convert unit tests to container-backed tests with Microshed/Testcontainers—demo shows a single test enlarged to six tests running in parallel; build OCI images with Paketo Cloud Native Buildpacks instead of hand authoring Dockerfiles; use Telepresence to swap a Kubernetes pod for a local service.
