microblink/java repository overview

⁠Microblink Java

This is the optimal Java runtime built from OpenJDK and based on Alpine Linux.

⁠Description

With the OpenJDK it is available the whole Java Development Kit, but to reduce the runtime size, this runtime is built with jlink which keeps only required parts of the OpenJDK for running Java applications (just for running not for compiling), for the development you should still use the whole JDK.

⁠Compare Sizes

The whole OpenJDK⁠ has around 317MB but reduced custom build runtime with jlink has only 91MB. This reduced runtime is based on Alpine Linux⁠ and this is the most optimal by size generic Java runtime.

⁠Primary Usage
