Looks neat! Was this developed to solve some internal project? I'm always a little curious when I see open source projects with such fancy landing pages etc that don't mention really what parent org they're from.
What would you say the advantage of this is over Spring Data REST, which automagically configures rest API for repositories (JPA or nosql).
Spring data is obviously a large dependenacy to have on an existing non-spring project, so I can see why this might be useful there. I'm not sure if Spring Data REST is JSON:API compliant but I'm assuming it might not be.
Also, on a side note, side takes 9 seconds to load for me from fresh cache, just a note to dev in case they hadn't realized.
Thanks for appreciation @potatosareok! This for project is neither internal nor any company stays behind it. We are a group of developers that are involved in developing json:api and we really missed java support for this standard.
From version 1.0 we are gonna focus on extending support for Spring Data to ease integration with DB repositories and also improve library modularity/extendability.
PS. You also motivated me to work harder and optimize katharsis.io page, because we laid put focus on library itself to be polished as much as possible, but I promise to make it load faster and improve the docs.
Unfortunately, json.api is such a terrible idea it could have been invented by IBM. I doubt it'll see much adoption, and so far has had almost no industry interest. The problem is that it leads to very weird code. When HATEOS is done right, there is no need for such a thing. Also, is really misnamed - it's not actually json, but a little part (the last interesting part) of hateoas that it's actually supporting. Good luck with your project.
