Cos, There are several reasons. 1. The only dependency between NLPCraft (core) and Java Client (or any other client) is REST API spec (openapi/nlpcraft_swagger.yml). The difference between these sub-projects will be even more pronounced when we introduce Python/Rust/Swift/Kotlin/NodeJS clients. 2. We want to maintain an independent release cadance between sub-projects. Client projects are much more stable in terms of release frequency than the core project. 3. Dev/user community for these sub-projects can be a bit different and we want to have built-in separation at least on "separate repo" level. 4. Non-JVM clients will have a very different distribution mechanics (npm for NodeJS, pip for Python, etc.) which don't mesh well with Java-based projects.
NLPCraft committers can chime in as well. Hope this makes it a bit clearer.
