MicroProfile/Jakarta EE/Open Liberty as a path for the workshop

Offer MicroProfile/Jakarta EE/Open Liberty as a path for the workshop. This is particular relevant to developers working with MicroProfile/Jakarta EE as their programming model of choice as well as for WebSphere Application Server users.

@yeekangc this sounds like goodness, I've got a question on how you would envision implementing the content. Of course start off with the 1st application being the microprofile stack. And then would you consider having a MP/Jakarta EE implementation for the quote-backend, and then doing the deep dive on stack customization be with the microprofile stack instead of nodejs-express? That approach would allow a majority of the flow to be kept similar making future updates for next versions of CP4A maybe a bit easier to keep across the paths.

Hi @timroster. Need to dive into the app further. Then, my initial thought is that this would be for a backend service, either as an additional one that the frontend can connect to or as an alternative.

Yes, in my mind, the flow should largely stay the same and updates should mainly be details without needing significant surgery to the overall structure too.
