quarkusio/quarkus ? reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a Java framework for cloud native applications, basically a developer friendly way to create apps that run well in containers and Kubernetes.

I want it to feel fast and lightweight, with quick startup, small memory use, and a smooth local development experience. It should work for tiny services but also not fall apart for bigger apps. Support normal JVM running, and also make room for native builds when someone needs a smaller footprint.

Please include a simple starter app, REST endpoints, configuration, tests, and examples that show both regular blocking code and reactive style code under one model. It should lean on familiar Java standards like REST, persistence, and microservice style configuration instead of inventing everything from scratch.

Make the repo clean enough that another developer can build it, run it locally, read the docs, and understand how to add extensions later. Look up current docs online if you need to.
