Hands-On Cloud-Native Applications with Java and Quarkus is a complete end-to-end development guide that will give you hands-on experience with building Kubernetes-native applications in serverless environments. To get the most out of this book, we recommend using a development environment that is integrated with Apache Maven (such as IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse) and import it into our example code files. That will help you to follow our projects step-by-step and, when needed, to debug them.

You can download the example code files for this book from your account at www.packt.com. If you purchased this book elsewhere, you can visit www.packt.com/support and register to have the files emailed directly to you.

You can download the code files by following these steps:

1. Log in or register at www.packt.com.

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "An index.html page is provided as a marker in our project, as shown in the project's hierarchy."

A block of code is set as follows:

 // Create new JSON for Order #1
    objOrder = Json.createObjectBuilder()
            .add("id", new Long(1))
            .add("item", "mountain bike")
            .add("price", new Long(100))

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

@POST
@RolesAllowed("admin")
public Response create(Customer customer)

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ tree src

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see on screen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Once you have some data, other actions (such as Edit and Delete) will be available."
