does kotlin in spring boot support jvmTarget > 1.8 (9/10/11) ?

Kotlin supports all versions of JDK as long as you’re using a new enough version. There are only true additions for JDK7 and 8 right now. In a recent upgrade, Kotlin will now recognize a jvmTarget > 8, but internally, it doesn’t currently do anything other than remove the cognitive disconnect of using JDK11, but having Kotlin say jvmTarget = 8.

“using a new enough version” -> version >= 1.3.30
