- Align all extension versions through the Quarkus platform BOM.
- Start with the smallest extension set, then add only what the feature needs.
- Never skip writing high-level integration tests and prefer them opposed to unit testing individual components. Only write unit tests when they are actually beneficial, e.g. implementing methods with complex logic
