Quarkus is an increasingly popular Kubernetes-native Java framework. Vaadin Flow users previously had to rely on community add-ons for Quarkus support, but now, with the release of Vaadin 22, the support is official.
This change means you can rely on continuous support when building Quarkus apps with a Vaadin Flow UI. Our documentation includes examples for Quarkus integration, and we test and maintain the compatibility with every release. Quarkus support is currently available for Vaadin 22, and it will be a part of the upcoming LTS release, Vaadin 23, next year.
Quarkus support is available for all Vaadin users and was developed with direct feedback from the community. Please give it a try and report any issues you may encounter, so we can keep developing it further.
Previous community-driven efforts include: The Vaadin Quarkus extension, Vaadin-Jandex and the Quarkus Vaadin Lab.

How to get started with Vaadin + Quarkus
Our Flow Quarkus starter project is the fastest way to get started. The project is also configured for Gradle.
