GraalVM Scripting Languages as Maven Dependencies

Explore the integration of GraalVM scripting languages as Maven dependencies in Java applications in this conference talk from GeeCON Prague 2023. Dive into the diverse technologies under the GraalVM project umbrella, including the native-image tool, JIT compiler, and implementations of additional languages like GraalPy and GraalJS. Learn how these languages can be used as standalone distributions or embedded in Java applications, enabling dynamic scripting capabilities even in native-image compiled programs. Discover the recent restructuring of the GraalVM project, which decoupled additional languages from its core, making them available as Maven dependencies compatible with various JDK distributions. Gain insights into leveraging GraalVM languages to enhance Java applications and understand the potential benefits and considerations when integrating these powerful scripting capabilities.
