Get Started

Step 1

Install via Command Line Interface

Open your favorite CLI and paste this script to spin-up Quarkus.

For Linux, macOS, and Windows (using WSL or bash compatible shell like cygwin or mingw)

curl -Ls https://sh.jbang.dev | bash -s - app install --fresh --force quarkus@quarkusio
                 

For Windows using Powershell

iex "& { $(iwr https://ps.jbang.dev) } app install --fresh --force quarkus@quarkusio"
                 

If it's your first time to install, you'll need ot restart your shell.

Step 2

Create the Getting Started Application

Run this script in your CLI:

quarkus create && cd code-with-quarkus
                 

Step 3

Run the Getting Started Application

Run this script in your CLI:

quarkus dev
                 

Boom! Your Quarkus app is now running at localhost:8080

Step 4

Live Coding with Quarkus

Quarkus makes it easy to change your code on the fly. Let's modify the RESTful endpoint

Open src/main/java/GreetingsResource.java in a text editor or your favorite IDE and change "hello RESTEasy" to "hola RESTEasy". Then refresh the browser and see the changes.

@Path("/hello")
public class GreetingResource {

    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
    public String hello() {
        return "Hello RESTEasy";
    }
}
