🤔 What's the problem you're trying to solve?

Cucumber JVM currently uses Java 8 as a baseline. And while not yet end-of-life, there have been many improvements to Java since. It would be nice to be able to use them. Further more other projects are switching or considering switching. So we may as well.

✨ What's your proposed solution?

On the next major version, switch to and require Java 17.
