Veld Framework

Ultra-fast Dependency Injection for Java - Zero Reflection, Pure Code Generation

Veld is a compile-time Dependency Injection framework that generates pure Java code. Zero reflection at runtime means maximum performance - up to 100x faster than Spring in dependency resolution benchmarks.

Designed for developers who want maximum performance, full control, and zero runtime magic.

Quick Start

1. Add Dependencies

Maven:

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.github.yasmramos</groupId>
    <artifactId>veld-annotations</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.4</version>
</dependency>

Gradle:

implementation 'io.github.yasmramos:veld-annotations:1.0.4'

2. Configure Maven Plugin

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>io.github.yasmramos</groupId>
            <artifactId>veld-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.4</version>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

3. Create Components

import io.github.yasmramos.veld.annotation.Component;
import io.github.yasmramos.veld.annotation.Inject;

@Component
public class UserService {
    private final UserRepository repository;
    
    @Inject
    public UserService(UserRepository repository) {
        this.repository = repository;
    }
    
    public User getUser(Long id) {
        return repository.findById(id);
    }
}

4. Use Veld

import io.github.yasmramos.veld.Veld;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        UserService userService = Veld.userService();
        User user = userService.getUser(1L);
    }
}
