== Trivial REST Example

This example shows probably the smallest JavaEE REST Service.
It is the REST version of the famous 'Hello World' program.
It contains just a link:src/main/java/com/superbiz/jaxrs/HelloEndpoint.java[Hello Resource].
The important parts of this class are the `@Path("hello")` and the `@GET` annotated method.

Note that the Resource is a CDI bean annotated with `@ApplicationScoped`.
Thus only one instance exists.
