2026-09-16 Show HN: Jinfer – AI inference engine for the JVM. AI in a jar unrated Hi HN, Some would call AI on the JVM quixotic. And so, Quixotic AI was born. jinfer is an inference engine for the JVM: chat, vision, audio, embeddings, reranking, and TTS. No Python runtime, no ONNX, no Docker containers, no sidecar process, no IPC. Finally, AI in a jar. The stack underneath is built for the JVM rather than bolted onto it: toknroll: pure-Java tokenizers, zero dependencies gguf / safetensors: read and write llama.cpp and HuggingFace model formats jam: quantized matmul kernels, competitive with llama.cpp on CPU jota: Tensor API targeting Java, C, CUDA, HIP, Metal, OpenCL, and Mojo It ships with integrations for Spring AI and LangChain4j, and is compatible with GraalVM Native Image for low-overhead, self-contained binaries with millisecond startup. This is an early release (CPU only): I'd especially like feedback on the API surface. Site: https://qxotic.ai Repo: https://github.com/qxoticai/qxotic

2026-08-30 Show HN: Explore JVM class-resolution traces as interactive directed graphs unrated ClassTrace Explorer captures JVM class-resolution activity and turns it into an interactive, self-contained HTML graph. It helps explain startup behavior, application/runtime boundaries, dependency coupling, and unexpectedly loaded code.
