UI not working in prod build

[vjuranek]

Hi,
I'm trying to add simple UI into my Quakus demo using Quinoa and React. In dev mode NodeJS server is started, I can access the UI and everything works. However, when I build the application and run it with java -jar target/quarkus-app/quarkus-run.jar, UI doesn't load (I'm getting Resource not found).
I'm using Quakus 3.28.1 and Quinoa 2.6.2.

Even example app created when I run mvn io.quarkus.platform:quarkus-maven-plugin:3.28.1:create -DprojectGroupId=org.acme -DprojectArtifactId=getting-started -Dextensions='io.quarkiverse.quinoa:quarkus-quinoa' doesn't work when app is build and run with java -jar target/quarkus-app/quarkus-run.jar.

However, on the web I found same example with app Quakus 3.13.3 and Quinoa 2.4.5 and this works for me with this example app. My React app however doesn't work even with Quakus 3.13.3 and Quinoa 2.4.5.

Any hint what cold be wrong please?

PS. This is similar to question Part of productive build, however, I'm not using Angular, so the answer doesn't apply.

@ia3andy i just confirmed this too. with the codestart i can see the code get built into a production build at

But its not being included in META-INF/resources of the \target\quarkus-app\app\code-with-quarkus-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar which it should be right?

One more observation - I intended to have web UI as a dedicated microservice which would read the data via REST API from another microservice (currently works only in dev mode as described in the original post). However, if I copy web UI into the REST service microservice project and build it, it works as expected also in production profile. So it seems to be broken only when there is no java code and project contains only web application itself.

Agreed I wonder if I add one Java file to my project this would then work?
