SouJava Talks: SouJava Talks: Quarkus in Action... in action with Martin Stefanko
Channel: SouJava
Date: 01/12/2023

SouJava would like to announce that we'll be pleased to have Martin Stefanko (@xstefank) again, but this time, he said: no slides, just code! Join us for the "Quarkus in Action... in action" session.

Details:

At the last SouJava Talks, we presented the SouJava community with the book Quarkus in Action by Martin Stefanko and Jan Martiska (Manning, https://www.manning.com/books/quarkus-in-action). However, as the author and presenter, Martin wanted more than just explaining what this book is about on slides. 

So now it's time to dive into IDE and start hacking! In this session, we create a new Quarkus project and show the developer joy that Quarkus brings. 

We will show you different ways of generating Quarkus projects, where you can find the relevant information, and most importantly, we will go over the Dev* features that boost your productivity to (at least) 150%. 

We will have an interactive session, so we can also take it in any direction the audience likes (I know how many questions we got about virtual threads last time :)).

If you still hesitate about why Quarkus rocks (even after the previous session), you will not once you see it in action. And this time, I promise, no slides, just code!

The book Quarkus in Action by Martin Stefanko and Jan Martiska (Manning, https://www.manning.com/books/quarkus-in-action) is a Quarkus learning material that will take you on a journey from your first Quarkus project to production-ready Car Rental microservices system. In this talk, you have the opportunity to discuss with the author, Martin Stefanko, any questions or ideas that you have about this book. We will also dive into IDE to demonstrate any features we discuss live. We cover the book's structure, intentions, and what you can expect from reading it. Q&A with the author is also essential in shaping the final version of the book, so I'm looking forward to your comments, suggestions, or recommendations, which will make you a part of this creative process of writing a Quarkus in Action book!
