    2. The wizard will prompt you to generate a new Maven or Gradle project. For example, to create a simple Java-based Graal Cloud Native application:
      • Select the Micronaut version
      • Select an Application type
      • Select an installed JDK
      • Provide a name for the project
      • Provide a base package
      • Pick the Graal Cloud Native features to be included in the project
      • Select a build tool: Maven or Gradle
      • Select a unit test framework: JUnit, Spock, or Kotest
      • Select cloud providers to support: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and/or Amazon Web Services.

      Note: select OCI if you want to later use the OCI DevOps service.

    3. Finally, you are asked where to save your new project. You can then choose to open it in a new VS Code window or to add it to a Workspace in the current VS Code window.

    You now have a new Graal Cloud Native application, complete with example code that shows you how to get going.
