Improved HATEOAS+HAL Support

[SenorPez]

One of the biggest things I miss from Spring (it's offset by other positives, though!) is the mature support for HATEOAS link generation and workflow through controllers. Making my REST API HATEOAS+HAL compliant takes a bit more manual work in Micronaut.

Am I missing a plugin? Is there a project to improve support on this end that I might follow or even possibly contribute to?

there is not currently, but I am aware it is something we can improve on. The new API in Micronaut 4 for MessageBodyReader and MessageBodyWriter will help here

Really looking forward to that! Thanks!

I'm a bit confused how this API would help. Would it be possible to post a small example how I could use it?
