Hi Thanks for trying Elastic Java APM

Here is a quick little Gist I put together to show Elastic APM with Java standalone it even includes a "Performance Bug" to look for. If you already have Kibana, Elasticsearch and APM Server running you can ignore the `docker-compose` instructions

It shows how to run the Java app with the Java agent from the command line.

If you need a quick elastic stack you can use this docker compose
