Hello, Kotlin Community 👋

I'm Yongjun Hong a software developer from south korea, while my primary experience is with Java, I have recently s While my primary experience is with Java, I have recently started learning Kotlin and exploring its applications in backend development.

I have submitted a proposal for Maven Central publishing plugin for Gradle with new APIs project . I would greatly appreciate any feedback on my proposal. 🚀 @Oleg Nenashev and gradle team :)

Beyond my personal learning, I have been an active contributor to the open-source community. I have participated in projects such as JUnit5, Spring-boot where I provided code reviews and technical support.

More than just contributing new features, I have also taken the initiative to propose enhancements. For instance, while working on an issue related to parallelization in JUnit5’s Vintage Test Engine, I observed that class-level parallelization offered minimal performance gains when running a single class. Based on this, I proposed and implemented method-level parallelization and, in the process, identified and resolved a deadlock issue.

Additionally, I have hands-on experience publishing libraries to Maven Central. This process has given me a solid understanding of dependency management, artifact signing, and release workflows, which I believe will be valuable for this project.

Thank you.
Yongjun Hong
