The Maven Archetype is not very flexible and therefore not used in the MicroProfile Starter where I used templating and programmatic generation of the project.
The current PR is an example of Jakarta Rest, but if you want to add later on, selectable through the UI or the REST API that can be created in front of it, database access or using OpenLiberty or Payara as test runtime this will not be possible. (if you only want to have the minimal what is selected and not all options by default)

Indeed that is the right project and I am redirecting us to the
developer alias. I think that's the best way for us to communicate
with the developers. Anyone can join here:

I think there are a couple of ways to proceed. You could
contribute directly to the project or you could help me pull
things into a PR focused on creating an initial Archetype. Either
way is perfectly fine I think. As always, my bandwidth will be
limited as I have to juggle the day job, the Ambassadors, Cargo
Tracker and some of my Diversity work.
My thought is to write the Archetype fully first and then put it
behind a UI/REST API. The advantage of the Archetype approach is
that it can be used in more ways such the command line, IDEs,
online UI, REST API, etc.
I look forward to collaborating and I already appreciate your
contributions to Cargo Tracker.

Hi Reza, it is great if some of my efforts can be
converted to the Eclipse official project. Let me know
what I can do at the moment. Is there a standalone starter
project for it?
BTW, many projects(MP, Spring, Micronaunt, etc)
provide a web UI(and REST API) for generating project
skeleton, is there a plan for Jakarta EE?
I have recently started an effort to convert the
Jakarta Starter project over to a Maven Archetype. I
think this would go nicely into generating starter
code through the Archetype for each of the major
application servers to start with. What do you think?
Want to join forces? If so, let’s take it offline or
to the Jakarta Starter mailing list?
