+            ‼️ This project reached end of life (EOL) status due to its incompatibility with Gradle 9.0 and the wide adoption of modern Java frameworks like Spring Boot, Micronaut, and Quarkus that can be executed without and directly by Tomcat. No more feature requests and bug fixes will be considered. Please fork the repository and publish your own releases if you want to continue maintaining the plugin.
