Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “From there, you can follow the instructions in README.md to run the app locally and deploy it to Kubernetes.”

A block of code is set as follows:

$ kubectl port-forward -n kubeapps svc/kubeapps 8080:80
Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:8080 -> 8080
Forwarding from [::1]:8080 -> 8080

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

$ chmod +x gradlew && ./gradlew openApiGenerate  # (this will create a maven project in-place, use gradlew.bat on Windows)
...
$ mvn spring-boot:run

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

kubectl apply -f ./accelerator-k8s-resource.yaml

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “From the TAP GUI’s Create page, let’s click the Choose button underneath the Hello Fun Accelerator.”
