Quarkus in Action…in Action!
summary
Quarkus claims much faster cold starts and smaller runtimes by shifting work to build time and already shows public benchmarks; the book builds a running example of five Quarkus services and the demos actually run: Dev Mode with hot reload and optional instrumentation preserves in-memory state, continuous testing reruns just the affected tests, the Dev UI edits config and opens Swagger, and Dev Services auto‑starts a PostgreSQL container. Project has ~1,200 contributors and ~950 extensions.
