I've used Redpanda for local development and testing stands. It is super easy to setup in docker, starts really fast and consumes less resources than Java version. Haven't really compared it to anything, but I remember using Java version of Kafka before and it was a resource hog. It is important when you develop on laptop with constrained resources.
