/**
 * Identical to {@link BasicRestServletGroup} but doesn't extend from {@link HttpServlet}.
 *
 * <p>
 * Meant as a base class for child REST resources in servlet containers or Spring Boot environments.
 *
 * <p>
 * Provides basic JSON support by implementing the {@link BasicJsonConfig} interface.
 * Other language types can be added via the {@link Rest#serializers() @Rest(serializers)}/{@link Rest#parsers() @Rest(parsers)} annotations
 * or by adding one of the predefined interfaces in {@link org.apache.juneau.rest.config}.
 *
 * <p>
 * Implements the basic REST endpoints defined in {@link BasicRestOperations} and {@link BasicGroupOperations}.
 *
 * <p>
 * Children are attached to this resource using the {@link Rest#children() @Rest(children)} annotation.
