Full Stack Quarkus and React

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.

Chapter 4

  1. JWT stands for JSON web token, a proposed standard that can be used to represent and securely exchange claims between two parties.
  2. To verify a JWT signature, we’ll need the public key.
  3. To generate a JWT in Quarkus, you can use the SmallRye JWT build dependency.
  4. Yes, we need to store a copy of the configured keys; however, the configuration for the path where these keys are stored can be overridden at runtime.
  5. We can use the @ConfigProperty annotation to retrieve a configuration value in Quarkus.
  6. If the @RolesAllowed annotation is applied both at a class level and then in a specific method, the method annotation takes precedence over the other.
