Full Stack Development with JHipster - Second Edition

Working with Microservices

In the previous chapter, we created a gateway and two microservices using JHipster. Now, we'll learn how to run the stack locally for testing and further development. But before we can start, we need to set up some tools in order to work with microservices. These tools provide some of the basic necessities, such as service discovery and configuration management, that we learned about in the previous chapters. Once we set up the required tools, we can see the applications in action.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

• Setting up JHipster Registry locally
• Running a generated application locally

Let's get started!
