The book guides readers through building a microservices system using REST, GraphQL, gRPC, reactive programming, messaging, and deployment to Kubernetes. They explain when to use JVM versus native mode, emphasizing that native is best for serverless and CLIs while JVM offers better long-running throughput. The authors share their writing process, covering 29 extensions across 12 chapters while managing version updates from Quarkus 2.x to 3.15. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
