+
+The Apache Camel community celebrates the release 1.0.0 of Camel Quarkus!
+
+## What is Camel Quarkus?
+
+Camel Quarkus brings the outstanding integration capabilities of Apache Camel to [Quarkus](https://quarkus.io/) - the
+toolkit for writing subatomically small and supersonically fast Java and Kotlin applications. In addition to
+memory consumption and start time improvements on stock JVMs, Quarkus also allows for compiling applications to
+[native executables](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/user-guide/first-steps.html#_package_and_run_the_application)
+thus improving the performance characteristics even more.
+
+Camel Quarkus is suitable not only for creating long living services and potentially short living serverless
+applications but also for
+[command-style applications](https://camel.apache.org/blog/2020/07/command-line-utility-with-camel-quarkus/)
+that execute some specific task (or wait for some specific condition) and exit.
+
+## Developer joy
+
+Writing integrations has never been more joyful for developers than with Camel Quarkus:
+
+* Easy to start with: either via [code.quarkus.io](https://code.quarkus.io/) or using `mvn quarkus:create`
+* The "live coding" feature, a.k.a. `mvn compile quarkus:dev` shortens your development iterations - check
+  [this 2 mins video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lXSf8DBQkQ)
+* Easy to test using JUnit 5 extensions
+* Hides the complexity of the native compilation using [GraalVM](https://www.graalvm.org/) or
+  [Mandrell](https://github.com/graalvm/mandrel)
+
+Check our [User guide](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/user-guide/first-steps.html)!
+
+## Camel components coverage
+
+Since the [early beginnings](https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus/tree/0.11.0/extensions/camel) the number of supported
+Camel bits went up substantially. As of Quarkus 1.0.0 and
+Camel 3.4, Camel Quarkus supports:
+
+* 155 out of 350 Camel components (44%)
+* 27 out of 43 Camel data formats (63%)
+* 13 out of 17 Camel languages (76%)
+* 17 out of 42 miscellaneous Camel components (40%)
+
+Some of these are supported in JVM mode only - please refer to the
+[complete list](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/list-of-camel-quarkus-extensions.html) for details.
+
+## Bootstrapping methods
+
+There are two ways to bootstrap and configure Camel Quarkus:
+
+1. Bare
+2. With Camel Main
+
+Both methods configure and start a Camel Context for you. The main difference is in how much the resulting Camel Context
+obeys the conventions known from Camel on other platforms. If you like to configure your routes using
+`camel.component.*` properties, then you need to add the `camel-quarkus-main` dependency and the properties
+will work as usual on Camel standalone or Camel Spring Boot. You may prefer this option if you used Camel before or if
+you are migrating from other platform.
+
+If you rather come from the CDI side and you never wrote Camel integrations before, you may choose to use the bare
+bootstrap and configure your routes using CDI. You can configure Camel using CDI even if you have Camel Main in your
+application.
+
+See the [Bootstrap section](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/user-guide/bootstrap.html) of the User guide
+for more details.
+
+## CDI
+
+CDI plays a central role in Quarkus and Camel Quarkus offers a first class support for it too. You may use `@Inject`,
+`@ConfigProperty` and other annotations e.g. to inject beans and configuration values to your Camel RouteBuilder's.
+See the [CDI section](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/user-guide/cdi.html) of the User guide for more
+details.
+
+## Native mode
+
+As mentioned above, Quarkus brings the option to compile an application to native executable. Compared to running on
+JVM, native applications start faster, require less memory at runtime and are also smaller on disk.
+
+However, the native compilation with GraalVM is all but easy and straightforward. First, there are
+[limitations](https://github.com/oracle/graal/blob/master/substratevm/LIMITATIONS.md) for what your code and all your
+dependencies may or may not do. Second, the native compiler needs to be configured through many options that may not be
+easy to figure out and maintain.
+
+Quarkus isolates application developers from most of those subtleties. The native compilation is driven by
+extensions which configure the native compiler in a way suitable for the given aspect of the application.
+
+On Camel Quarkus, the extensions roughly correspond to camel components - i.e. if you
+need `camel-sql` you add the `camel-quarkus-sql` extension as a dependency to your application and it takes
+care for both pulling the `camel-sql` artifact and configuring the native compiler. Extension pages document any
+further configuration that needs to be done by the application developer. E.g. in case of the
+[SQL extension](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/extensions/sql.html#_additional_camel_quarkus_configuration),
+the `quarkus.camel.sql.script-files` property needs to be set.
+
+Check the [Native mode](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/user-guide/native-mode.html) section of the Camel
+Quarkus User guide and [Quarkus Native guide](https://quarkus.io/guides/writing-native-applications-tips) for more
+details about the native compilation on Quarkus.
+
+## Who is using Camel Quarkus?
+
+While we mostly have only indirect information about the usage via
+[GitHub issues](https://github.com/apache/camel-quarkus/issues), there is one prominent user, we are especially proud
+of: [Camel K](https://camel.apache.org/camel-k/latest/index.html). As of
+[Camel K 1.0](https://camel.apache.org/blog/2020/06/camel-k-release-1.0.0#fast-startup-and-low-memory), Camel Quarkus is
+one of the two supported runtimes and "is expected to be the default underlying runtime in the next release".
+
+## Highlights of the release 1.0.0
+
+General:
+
+* Camel 3.4.2
+* Quarkus 1.7.0.Final
+
+New extensions:
+
+* [Grok](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/extensions/grok.html)
+* [JPA](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/extensions/jpa.html)
+
+## What's next?
+
+* [More extensions](https://github.com/apache/camel-quarkus/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Aextension) - upvote
+  or even better [contribute](https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/contributor-guide/index.html)!
+* Even less reflection with Camel 3.5
+
+We wish you a lot of joy with Camel Quarkus and we look forward to your feedback and participation!
