So far, we have learned how to build a simple REST application with Quarkus and covered the actions that should be put in place to build, test, and deploy our application on a Kubernetes environment.

We could stop at this point and be happy with what we have achieved; however, there are still lots of milestones to reach. For example, we haven't used any web interfaces to access Quarkus services. As you will see in this chapter, Quarkus features some extensions that allow us to reuse standard enterprise APIs such as Servlets and web sockets. At the same time, you can use lighter JavaScript/HTML 5 frameworks as user interfaces for your services. We will explore both approaches in this chapter.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

• Adding web content to Quarkus applications
• Running our application on Minishift
• Adding enterprise web components to our application such as Servlet and WebSockets
