Basics and fundamentals - Comments / Questions

In https://redhat-developer-demos.github.io/quarkus-tutorial/quarkus-tutorial/02_basics.html :

• should the CLI tab be first instead of the Maven one? Should we recommend to install the CLI in the requirements even if not using SDKMAN? If we do that, we would need to do it through the whole tutorial. Note that it's just a suggestion, you might have a very good reason to prefer using Maven as a first choice.
• the startup line references Quarkus 3.2.0. We cannot keep it updated but maybe we could update to new LTS being 3.8.4?

I think Maven was preferred at the time because it would mean one less tool to install, but I do prefer the Quarkus CLI as it's cleaner and simpler.. @lordofthejars @eldermoraes WDYT?

WRT the Quarkus 3.2 in the logs yes that should ideally be updated

@kdubois from a personal perspective, I prefer Maven over Quarkus CLI, to be honest. Especially because my muscle memory already drives me to it.

But I can switch to Quarkus CLI if we agree that's better for our audience.
