The helloworld-html5 quickstart demonstrates the use of CDI 1.2 and JAX-RS 2.0 using the HTML5 architecture and RESTful services on the backend.

What is it?

The helloworld-html5 quickstart demonstrates the use of CDI 1.2 and JAX-RS 2.0 in {productNameFull} {productVersion} or later using the HTML5 + REST architecture.

The application is basically a smart, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript front-end using RESTful services on the backend.

• HelloWorld.java: Establishes the RESTful endpoints using JAX-RS.

• web.xml: Maps RESTful endpoints to /hello.

• index.html: Is a jQuery augmented plain old HTML5 web page.

The example can be deployed using Maven from the command line or from Eclipse using JBoss Tools.
