#1about 7 minutes

Setting up your first Quarkus application

Use the code.quarkus.io web interface to configure and download a new Maven project, then review the standard, slower compile-and-run development cycle.

#2about 2 minutes

Accelerating development with live reload mode

Run your application in dev mode to see code and configuration changes from application.properties reflected instantly without needing to manually restart the server.

#3about 4 minutes

Preserving application state with instrumentation-based reload

Enable instrumentation-based reloading from the dev console to maintain application state across code changes for easier stateful debugging.

#4about 3 minutes

Getting instant feedback with continuous testing

Quarkus automatically detects code changes and runs only the relevant tests, providing immediate feedback directly in your console.

#5about 3 minutes

Using the dev console to manage runtime configuration

Toggle runtime settings like log levels directly from the interactive dev console without modifying your application's property files.

#6about 6 minutes

Building container images and Kubernetes manifests

Use extensions like Jib or Docker to build container images and automatically generate Kubernetes deployment manifests from your project configuration.

#7about 7 minutes

Live coding on a remote Kubernetes cluster

Connect your local development environment to an application running in Kubernetes to apply code changes remotely and in real-time.

#8about 6 minutes

Simplifying database persistence with Hibernate Panache

Use the active record pattern with Hibernate Panache to simplify data access logic by extending PanacheEntity and using its static helper methods.

#9about 4 minutes

Zero-config local databases with dev services
