Repository for important documentation - the index to the project / community

MicroProfile Documentation

The MicroProfile project has several sources of information and collaboration. Since there is a large volume of activity, there is a need for important decisions to be recorded in one place for future reference. This is the aim of this repository.

Current Resources

The Microprofile project is community-focused at its heart and aims to engage and encourage lively discussion through as many channels as possible.

Code, code, code

Several Eclipse github repos exist for the development of MicroProfile features…​

MicroProfile — Top-level repo used to collect Microprofile-related information (this repo)
MicroProfile Conference App — "Architectural Application" to demonstrate MicroProfile on a variety of vendors
MicroProfile Samples — Simple sample application to demonstrate MicroProfile capabilities
MicroProfile Config — Proposal for MicroProfile application configuration
MicroProfile Evolution Process — Process for developing new features for MicroProfile (under construction)

Some of the repositories are hosted under the Microprofile github organization, including the following repos:

Presentations — Various presentations given about MicroProfile in native format and, where necessary, pdf.
The MicroProfile Maven BOM — "Bill of Materials" for MicroProfile projects providing complete MicroProfile API
Microprofile.io site — source code of the application that powers the microprofile.io site

Eclipse MicroProfile and Microprofile.io

The MicroProfile community recently moved to the Eclipse MicroProfile project. Although we now have this portal to our community at Eclipse, we will continue to maintain our external portal at microprofile.io. Both sites will be maintained to promote the development and use of MicroProfile in the industry.

Google Group

The Microprofile Google Group is the preferred place for discussions to take place.

Mailing Lists

Besides the Google Group threads (main source of communication), there is also a microprofile-dev mailing list which should be used for conversation specific to the Eclipse way of doing things. By using this mailing list, the Eclipse team can more quickly recognize and respond to our requests.

Since the MicroProfile project is still in incubation, another useful mailing list is the incubation mailing list.

Notable Contributors

There is a very large number of people and vendors already involved in the MicroProfile project. The most complete list of contributors can be found at our microprofile.io site. Specific to our Eclipse efforts, another page is automatically maintained at Eclipse MicroProfile for the Eclipse committers and project leads.
