The JVM SDK currently only supports legacy versions of Nitric prior to v1. This version is maintained for compatibility with existing projects and not recommended for new projects. New projects should be started using a supported SDK (presented automatically using the `nitric new` command) orget in touch to request an update to the latest version.
