I am interested in contributing to this project and getting into open source. I am trying to build the app according to the instructions in the README but my build is crashing. The console output is below, if anyone can help in any way it is greatly appreciated!!

We need someone to try this again on windows with a fresh master

Im using Windows 10 with OpenJDK 19 and these two build commands are successfull:
mvnw clean install -Pprod -DskipUIBuild=true -Dmaven.test.skip=true
mvnw -f kafka-ui-api/pom.xml clean install -Pprod -DskipUIBuild=true -Dmaven.test.skip=true

If I try to run with tests enabled:
mvnw clean install -Pprod -DskipUIBuild=true
mvnw -f kafka-ui-api/pom.xml clean install -Pprod -DskipUIBuild=true
Following tests fail:

When trying to build the UI as well:
./mvnw clean install -Pprod
./mvnw clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Pprod
I get the error described in issue 3484.
