REST.VertX

Uses standard annotations like @GET, @POST, and @Path, making it easy for developers with JAX-RS or Spring MVC experience to adopt, as shown in the example REST endpoint definitions.

Supports path variables, query parameters, headers, cookies, and matrix parameters with flexible readers, including raw and decoded options, detailed in the Paths and Query variables sections.

Provides @Authenticate and @Authorize annotations that integrate with Vert.x's security model, simplifying authentication and authorization with custom providers, as explained in the Authentication and Authorization chapter.

Allows global and per-endpoint exception handlers for consistent error responses, with support for multiple handlers and custom exceptions, evidenced in the Error handling section.

Integrates JSR 380 bean validation and JSR330 dependency injection providers like Guice, reducing boilerplate for data validation and service integration, as covered in Validation and Injection chapters.
