Full Stack Quarkus and React

By: Marc Nuri San Felix

Overview of this book

React has established itself as one of the most popular and widely adopted frameworks thanks to its simple yet scalable app development abilities. Quarkus comes across as a fantastic alternative for backend development by boosting developer productivity with features such as pre-built integrations, application services, and more that bring a new, revolutionary developer experience to Java. To make the best use of both, this hands-on guide will help you get started with Quarkus and React to create and deploy an end-to-end web application. This book is divided into three parts. In the first part, you’ll begin with an introduction to Quarkus and its features, learning how to bootstrap a Quarkus project from the ground up to create a tested and secure HTTP server for your backend. The second part focuses on the frontend, showing you how to create a React project from scratch to build the application’s user interface and integrate it with the Quarkus backend. The last part guides you through creating cluster configuration manifests and deploying them to Kubernetes as well as other alternatives, such as Fly.io. By the end of this full stack development book, you’ll be confident in your skills to combine the robustness of both frameworks to create and deploy standalone, fully functional web applications.

Deploying Your Application to Fly.io

In this chapter, we’ll learn how to deploy our task manager application to Fly.io, one of the most popular cloud Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) providers, where we’ll make it publicly available to the rest of the world. We’ll start by learning about Fly.io and why it’s a good choice for deploying our application. Then, we’ll study how to configure and build our project to be able to deploy it to Fly.io. Finally, we’ll learn how to deploy the application along with its required services, and we’ll test that everything works as expected.

By the end of this chapter, you should be able to deploy applications to Fly.io and make them available to the rest of the world. Being able to deploy your application to multiple platforms will give you flexibility and the ability to choose from multiple options when it comes to publishing your applications on the internet.

We will be covering the following topics...
