It used to be the case that if you wanted to build a web service on the JVM, you wanted 2 things: 1. An HTTP server library/framework 2. A JSON library We got a decently-performing and unopionated HTTP server in JDK 18 with "HttpH

Neat! Two questions I had after using it: 1) Is there a way to filter the visual atlas by the search term? For instance, I searched "ribosome" and it gave me a list, but I couldn't seem to visualize the list 2) I notice there
