Spring Tools 4: The new generation on the horizon

In the final section of this article, I want to give you a brief outlook at what is coming next. In December 2017 we launched the public beta of the next generation of Spring tooling. The so-called “Spring Tools 4” initiative and the corresponding public beta launch not just offers great tooling for Spring apps when working with the Eclipse IDE, but is also available for Visual Studio Code and Atom: https://spring.io/tools4.

The next generation includes all of what you have seen here in this article so far, and goes beyond that. It offers a super quick and easy source-code navigation to all the important pieces of your Spring Boot application. You will get easy access to all your request mappings, bean definitions, function implementations, data repositories, and more – just by selecting the “Go To Symbol” action.

In addition to that, your source code will be augmented with information from running Spring Boot applications. As soon as you start your Spring Boot app, real-time information from that app will appear in your source code, allowing you to get a unique insight into your running Spring Boot app. You will be able to see which beans are active, how they got wired to each other, which conditions have succeeded or failed and for what reason, and more.

Wanna give it a try? Feel free to take a look at: https://spring.io/tools4 – download and go! It is available as a ready-to-use Eclipse distribution (based on Eclipse Photon), and as extensions for Visual Studio Code, and Atom.

And feedback is always welcome. Please feel free to go to https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/issues and raise questions, provide feedback, and report bugs and enhancement requests.

Spring Tools 4

Spring Tools 4 is the next generation of Spring tooling for your favorite coding enrivonment. Largely rebuilt from scratch, it provides world-class support for developing Spring-Boot-based enterprise applications, whether you prefer Eclipse, Visual Studio Code, or Eclipse Theia.

Getting Started

Spring Tool Suite 4 makes it easy to get started. A direct and easy-to-use integration of the Spring Initializr and the famous Spring Guides allows you to go from nothing to a running Spring Boot app in seconds.

Navigate your Spring code at the speed of light

Understanding and quickly navigating source code is essential for coding. The new Spring Tools 4 understands your Spring-Boot-based source code and allows you to quickly get an overview and navigate to the important pieces of your Spring apps. Finding Spring elements and navigating to them has never been easier.

Smart Code Editing

Code completion is a critical part of working with source code. The all-new Spring Tools 4 provides smart code completions for the Spring elements in your app.

Runtime Information In Your Editor

Spring Tools 4 now bridges the gap between your source code and running Spring Boot applications. By taking advantage of the Spring Boot Actuators, we enriched the source code with detailed information from the running app (e.g., exact bean wiring information, conditional reports, configuration, details, and more).

Installation

You can install the Spring Tools for Eclipse IDE into an existing Eclipse installation using the Eclipse Marketplace. Just open the marketplace client in Eclipse, search for Spring Tools and install the “Spring Tools (aka Spring IDE and Spring Tool Suite)” entry.

In case you prefer to use a ready-to-use distribution, you can go to https://spring.io/tools and download the Spring Tool Suite distribution, which is a full Eclipse distribution (based on the latest Eclipse release) with Spring Tools pre-installed.

Working with properties

Spring Boot does a lot of things automatically for you. But that doesn’t mean you can’t customize this default behavior. One way to customize the behavior is in code, the other one is by using properties. And Spring Boot offers a huge number of properties.

Assuming you want to define the port your Spring Boot app is running on. Just open the “application.properties” or “application.yml” file (depending on whether you prefer property or YAML format for your config files) and go. The Spring Tools for Eclipse IDE provide an enhanced editor experience that offers code completion for all the available Spring Boot properties.

Beyond the code completion, which offers a full list of properties together with documentation hints and types of those properties, the editor also checks keys and values for correctness. If, for example, a property is unknown, it will let you know via a warning. If the value that you put in doesn’t match the type of the property, an error will appear.

Spring Tools for Eclipse IDE

To make it even easier to write modern Spring Boot applications, the latest generation of the Spring Tools for the Eclipse IDE are well suited for getting started with Spring Boot and working on large microservice applications that are based on Spring Boot. This article walks you through the most important features of the tooling and provides great insight into a number of tips and tricks along the way.

Creating Spring Boot projects from scratch

The most famous way to create new Spring Boot projects is to go to https://start.spring.io and choose which Spring starter modules you wanna use. Once you do that, you can download a ZIP file of your new project and import that into your development environment.

The Spring Tools for Eclipse IDE come with a direct integration of that into your Eclipse IDE. Go to “File”, select “New” and choose the “Spring → Spring Starter Project”. The wizard lets you choose the Spring Initializr endpoint you would like to use (in case you have a custom one running within your company, for example) and then lets you select a boot version and offers all the Spring Boot starter modules that are around for that boot version. Just choose the ones that match your interest and click “Finish”. You end up with a ready-to-use Spring Boot project in your workspace – in just a few seconds.

Running Spring Boot apps

Suppose we have a simple Spring Boot application that we got from importing the “Rest Service” guide. It implements a simple @RestController and serves some JSON back to the user. In order to run this app, you could select “Run As → Spring Boot App” or create your own launch configuration in the Eclipse IDE. A better and easier way to run your Spring app is the Spring Boot Dashboard. It is a separate view in your IDE that you can activate from the toolbar (look for the Spring Boot icon).

The Spring Boot Dashboard lists all the projects from your workspace that are Spring Boot projects. You can select one or multiple projects and run them just by hitting the “(Re)Start” button. It will create a default launch config for your Spring Boot app automatically if you don’t have one yet.

The Spring Boot Dashboard helps you to deal with potentially many Spring Boot apps in your workspace. It allows you to filter them, start or even restart multiple apps in parallel, or easily jump to the right console view for a running app.

The Spring Boot Dashboard, in addition to managing the launching of apps, offers more facilities for gaining insights into your applications. Jumping to the properties view from a running and selected Spring Boot app in the dashboard, you will see not just a quick overview and a ready-to-use hyperlink that lets you jump to the frontend of the running app immediately (without looking up port numbers, etc.). You will also see two additional tabs that provide direct information from the running app: request mappings and beans. The request mappings tab, for example, shows you all the request mappings that the application serves together with its location in the source code. Double-clicks let you jump directly to the source code where the mapping is implemented. This allows you to easily navigate between your running app and your source code.

The beans tab offers you the list of beans that are live at runtime, created by the Spring application. You can browse through the list or filter for certain characters. The good thing here is that you can also see dependencies among those beans, so that you can gain insight into which bean depends on which other bean. You want to know, for example, which data source got injected into your controller? Search for your controller name in the list of live beans and you will see the answer right away.

Using Spring Guides

In case you want to learn about a specific area of Spring and Spring Boot, you might want to take a look at the Spring Guides: https://spring.io/guides. They offer a comprehensive set of small tutorial-like step-by-step introductions to specific features of Spring. You can use them, for example, to learn how to implement your first RESTful service that delivers JSON.

Those guides can be imported into your Spring-Tools-enhanced Eclipse IDE by using the “Import Spring Getting Started Content” wizard, also available from the “New” menu. It is a great way to quickly import those guide projects, try them out, and learn from them.

This is fixed and will be available as part of the next update release, coming out probably next week. If you want to try a nightly update site, you could install STS4 manually from https://dist.springsource.com/snapshot/TOOLS/sts4/nightly/e4.12 into your Eclipse 4.12 install. I haven’t tried that yet, but maybe even updating your existing install with STS4 included (but broken) by adding this nightly CI p2 repo to your available update sites preferences might work – although I haven’t tried this myself yet.

In reply to Can’t create spring project by Georhii Prystupa

This might be related to an issue that I am investigating at the moment again. Are you running your Eclipse 2019-06 on JDK8? If so, could you try to run your Eclipse install with a JDK11 and a “-clean” option at least once to see if that changes anything? Another option to dianose the issue would be to open the “Console” view, switch to the “Host OSGi Console” and type “ss” for “short status”. If there are certain STS bundles in the “INSTALLED” state, it might indeed be the issue that I am looking at right now and running with JDK11 should solve the issue. Another workaround would be to download a ready-to-use STS4 distribution from https://spring.io/tools, it works on JDK8 and JDK11 and comes on top of Eclipse 2019-06 with pre-installed STS4 components.

In reply to Eclipse 2019-3 version not able to update from HTTPS urls by rajnish singh

The URL that you mention (wih the “context.xml”) doesn’t exist indeed, but usually the update mechanism tries to access that and then tries the next variant, like the “compositeContent.xml” one. Maybe there is a proxy server in between that causes p2 not to recognize that this URL doesn’t exist? What happens if you try “https://download.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/sts4/update/e4.11/” from the “Install New Software” dialog? Anything showing up?

In case the https protocol causes trouble (due to some network restrictions), you could also try the http variant (even though we don’t recommend that), but maybe it helps in your situation at least.

We tried to switch the repo URLs to https instead of http, but there seems to be some hurdles along they way. We are on it. For the meantime, I switched the marketplace entries back to use http. Caches might take a while to update to that, but after that, you should be able to install again. You can also download a ready-to-use distribution from https://spring.io/tools, which is Eclipse 2018-12 with Spring Tools 4 pre-installed.

Eclipse 2018-12 bouncy castle issues with STS4

Submitted by Sasi Peri on Thu, 02/07/2019 – 15:00

Version: 2018-12 (4.10.0)Build id: 20181214-0600

This version of Eclipse prompts the user to choose one of the bouncy castle distribution (Sun or Oracle), during STS Installations. Earlier versions used work if we choose Sun for example. Latest version unless we choose both does nothing. Throws no error at all, but quietly does nothing. After restarting eclipse we will find STS is not installed. It completes the installation only if we choose both.

Yeah, Cloudflare caches the content for us, so that is fine, but the capture is strange and should not happen. But the URL is not meant to be used in a browser, so not sure where the capture appears…?!?

I would recommend to remove the update site URL from the preferences, restart STS, and try again. If that doesn’t help, you could also try to go to “Install New Software” yourself (in your Eclipse installation) and select the update site there to see if that works. You could also try to use a slightly different one (http://download.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/sts4/update/latest/ or http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/sts4/update/e4.9/) – as a third option to try.

This is usually caused by a network glitch and stale cached data afterwards. Please go to the “Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Update Sites” and remove to corresponding update site from that list (not disable it but remove it completely). Then restart and retry. That should solve the issue.

Another option would be to go to https://spring.io/tools and download a ready-to-use distribution of Spring Tools 4 for Eclipse, it is based on the latest Eclipse 2018-09 release and comes with the Spring Tools 4 pre-installed.

In reply to Spring Perspective not showing up (Spring Tool Suite 4 on Mac) by Martin Schoepf

Spring Tools 4 don’t contain any Spring perspective anymore, the major elements got added to the regular Java perspective, since that is what most people use for daily Spring Boot app development. So if you open an existing workspace that had the Spring perspective open from STS3 with STS4, you should close that perspective and continue with the Java one instead.

I have changed the location in Prefences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites to use HTTPS, but it gets switched back to HTTP and duplicates the listing. I have tried reloading and it does not work either. Any ideas? Can I manually download the manifest and put it someplace?

Downloading an individual bundle is possible, but it doesn’t really help much, since you can’t easily install that into your Eclipse. What happens if you go to “Install New Software” and put the HTTPS version of the URL in there? Does that work?

I am not aware of any mechanism that replaces the HTTPS automatically with the HTTP one and I am sure that the P2 repository that contains this bundle is available via the HTTP as well as tne HTTPS version of the URL. So maybe some network specific settings/proxies in your environment?

You could also try and download the whole STS 3.9.5 update site for Eclipse 4.8 from here: https://spring.io/tools/sts/all – and add that as a local update site to your installation (just an additional option to try).

The repository location hasn’t changed, I guess there is an issue with stale data in the cache somewhere. You can go to the preferences, select the update location, and press “Reload”, that usually helps. If not, remove the update site from the preferences, restart Eclipse, and add it back again (Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Update Sites).

This looks like a typical network or repository caching issue. I would recommend to go to the Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Updtae Sites, select the one that is used (“dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/e4.6” and/or “dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/3.9.2.RELEASE/e4.6/”) and press “reload”. That refreshes the internal repository caches. Then try again the install. You could also delete all those STS-related update sites from that preference and try again the marketplace entry. That should solve the issue.

Not sure how exactly you are trying to install the Spring Roo support (and why) and from which update site, but using the STS product update site from here (http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/e4.7/) should work. Otherwise I would recommend to download a ready-to-use STS distribution from that site and use the Dashboard to install the Spring IDE Roo extension from there.

MIght be a corrupted download or stale cache data in the p2 pool. I would suggest to delete the file, open Eclipse again, check the preferences if the STS update site already landed there and if so, select it and press “reload”, just to make sure caches are invalidated. Then try again. Another option would be to use the update site directly or download a ready-to-use Eclipse distribution with the STS tools pre-installed via https://spring.io/tools.

In reply to Gradle 2.0 not found in Oxygen.2 4.7.2 by Adrian Degenhardt

In case you select Gradle as the build environment when importing or creating new Spring projects, you need to have some kind of Gradle support installed in your Eclipse environment. We strongly recommend to use Buildship 2 for this. The error message indicates that you probably don’t have that support installed.

You can get Buildship from the Eclipse Marketplace (right from within Eclipse using the Help menu). Once you have that installed and select Gradle in the import wizard, the error should not appear anymore.

The mentioned artifacts are available, so it looks like there is some stale cache data somewhere. I would recommend to go to the Preferences -> install/Update -> Available Update Sites, select the one for STS (or multiple ones if you have more than one), and press “Reload”. That should cause the cached data to be refreshed.

If this doesn’t help, you could try to remove the update site from that list (in the preferences), restart Eclipse, and add it back to that list.

Hope this helps!!!

In that case I would remove all STS-related update sites from the preferences and restart STS. Then go to the “Install New Software” dialog and put http://download.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/e4.5 into the update site URL field (if you are running Eclipse 4.5). Then select the components you want to install and continue. Make sure you have the main Eclipse Neon update in your preferences and active, so that missing components will be fetched from threre.

The error message complains about missing test bundles, which you don’t need when installing the Spring Tools into an existing Eclipse installation. You should select the features under the `Spring Tools` category only, that is all you need. And those features don’t require the mentioned test bundles. If that doesn’t help, please provide more details how you are trying to install the Spring Tools and what you select along the way.

This looks like a network glitch when downloading the artifacts or a proxy server getting into the way. Please try again. If this doesn’t help, some cache might be causing this broken file to stick around, so please search for the files with those names “org.springframework.ide.eclipse.docker.client” and “org.springframework.tooling.boot.ls” and delete them from the cache. Hope that helps!

In reply to Got error when installating progress. by Joe Hsu

It looks like you are using an updated Eclipse version (2021-03) here, for which the latest versions of the Spring Tools 4 (on the Eclipse Marketplace) are no longer compatible with. Therefore, you are running into an issue, most likely the installation process tries to install components from a newer Eclipse platform version (alongside the Spring Tools components) that use a newer signing infrastructure – which then results in the above mentioned error.

The best solution here would be to use a more recent Eclipse platform (2022-09 at the time) and install the Spring Tools 4 on top of that Eclipse – or grab the latest ready-to-use distribution from https://spring.io/tools.

If you have to use the 2021-03 Eclipse (for whatever reason), you can install an old version of the Spring Tools 4 using the “Install New Software” menu item and then this update repository: https://download.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/sts4/update/4.12.0.RELE…

It will give you the latest version of the Spring Tools 4 that was compatible with that version of Eclipse – but it is an outdated and no longer supported version, so I don’t recommend this option and would strongly recommend to use the latest version instead – if at all possible.

x509 certificate issue?

Submitted by Walter L on Sat, 09/24/2022 – 15:55

Just downloaded a fresh install of Eclipse Version: 2022-09 (4.25.0) – Build id: 20220908-1902, and fired up Marketplace to install Spring Tools 4 (4.16.0.RELEASE). I only kept the two required components and clicked on Install. As it’s downloading, a “Trust” dialog popped up asking me to trust the expired certificates from Pivotal – the expiration dates were 2018 and 2020. Google search turned up nothing. Can I continue installation without trusting the expired certificates?

This is usually caused by some stale cache data. You can fix this by going to the Preferenes -> Install/Update -> Available Update Sites, then select the one you mentioned, and press “Reload”. This usually solves the problem.

In case this doesn’t help, delete the entry from the list of available update sites, restart the IDE, and add the entry back to the list. That should work as a last resort if everything else failed.

Thak you Martin. However, that stackoverlow did not help. I saw that post before I asked here and I followed it again. While I have been able to add certificate as described (making below assumptions as the explanation was not clear on that), I am still unable to install STS4 into my Eclipse 2021-03.

Following the SO link you provided:

  1. I navigated in Chrome to https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/spring-tools-4-aka-spring-tool-… – I assume this is where I should be to export the certificate
  2. Following Stackoverflow link, I exported the certificate and used keytool to add it to my jdk1.8/jre/lib/security/cacerts
  3. I even confirmed it has been added, also using keytool to list certificates
  4. Restarted my machine, restart Eclipse > Help > Market place > search for “STS” > Select STS4 > Install
  5. Got box listing what will be installed > Confirm
  6. My C:/Program Files/Java has two versions jdk 1.8.0_172 and jdk-11.0.10. I did the above for jdk 1.8.0_172 as that is the jdk in my System Path variable.

And ended up with the same error as described in my original question

Hey! The “add starters” menu option is indeed gone (since a few releases already), but I got replaced with a new “Add Starters” menu item that you should be, which also allows you to add starter modules from start.spring.io and even brings more goodies from start.spring.io into the IDE here, e.g. additional resources that start.spring.io would generate for you, new properties in your properties file (in case the selected modules include them), etc. Here is a user guide for this new way to add starters to your project: https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/wiki/Add-Spring-Boot-Starters-T…

Hello Martin,Thank you for your answer.Yes I know this procedure which you mentioned in the web link.But I’m sorry, I prefer the old method with the ‘Edit starters’ option …When we choose ‘Add starters’, why in the graphical interface, you don’t add an ‘already selected’ section in addition to the ‘selected’ section?I think it’s important to quickly have a graphic visual, rather than making a comparison with the xml file …The 2 ways can be complementary …Maybe it’s hard to implement the code to be able to do this? ^^

In reply to Re: Re: Hello, by Richard Dutellier

Hey Richard,

your feedback on this is much appreciated. The reason why we no longer do something like a “pre-selection” is starter modules that you already have on your project is based on the latest generations of the initializr project and the way that works. When you select starter modules in there, the resulting project might not exactly contain those modules exclusively. There is logic in initializr and some of the starter modules to do more sophisticated things, like automatically adding additional other starters for you. And there is no “inverted logic” in there, which infers which starters you would need to select in order to produce the set of starters that you have. Therefore we don’t really have a way to implement this “inverted logic”. (This gets even more complicated if users edited their pom.xml file (in case you use Maven) manually). Therefore we decided to not implement any logic to pre-select existing starters on your project. Sorry for not being able to bring this pre-selection back. Hope you find the new wizard useful nevertheless. If you have additional suggestions, please raise them as enhancement requests here: https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/issues.

Actually, identifying dependencies of a project is not that complicated in an IDE, since the Maven integration for Eclipse in this case already does that work for you – and that is what the pom dependency analyzer tool would do as well in case I understood this. The difficult part is to calculate the pre-selection on start.spring.io that would lead to the pom that you analyze. It is not a 1-to-1 mapping (for a good reason actually, from the project-generation perspective).

Hey! That sounds like an issue with the installation and the underlying bundles being maybe wired in a weird way. The best way forward would be a submit an issue at https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/issues and tell us exactly which package of Eclipse 2021-03 you installed, which other third-party plugins you added, and how you installed the STS4 components then. I used the Eclipse JEE paclage of 2021-03 and installed STS4 from the Eclipse marketplace and that seemed to work, so we need to take a closer look at your exact setting in which you are trying to install the Spring Tools 4.

As a quick fix for you, feel free to download a ready-to-use distribution of the Spring Tools 4 for Eclipse from https://spring.io/tools. Version 4.10.0 of the Spring Tools 4 for Eclipse are a distribution built on Eclipse 2021-03, so you will get the latest in here as well.

If you want to install Spring Tools 4 into an existing Eclipse installation, you can choose the “Eclipse Marketplace…” menu entry, then search for Spring, pick the “Spring Tools 4” entry, and press the “Install” button.

The JAR file that you can download from the https://spring.io/tools page is a self-extracting full distribution of the Spring Tools 4 for Eclipse (including an Eclipse 2020-12 with pre-installed Spring Tools 4 extensions). You can download the JAR and double-click it. It will then self-extract the full distribution.

That sounds indeed bad. Can you pleaee file a bug at https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/issues/ for this and tell us how to reproduce this crash? Is it really the JVM that is crashing or is it a freeze at the UI, so that the process isn’t responding anymore? Is there something in the Error Log View that relates to the problem? Or is the VM itsel crashing and in case that happens, is there a JVM crash log file tha you could attach? In case the process freezes, there is a setting in the “Preferences -> General -> UI Responsiveness Monitoring” that you could turn on to capture stack traces while the UI seems to be frozen. That would be great and help us a lot to find the underlying issues.

This is part of some default options to speed up the exeution and launch of the Spring Boot app, but you can change that in the “Preferences -> Spring -> Boot”, take a look at the “Fast Startup” section, where you can change those settings.

Thanks your answer, I found the place and remove the option. However, still not working with another error when I run the application…. seems it’s stil a problem of JDK. I have synchronized all configuration place in eclipse with JDK1.7.0 (such as project compiler,classpath settings, eclipse preferences etc). Spring boot version I use is 1.5.9 Release.

The error is “Could not find the main class”. then I copy the command and run in the dos window, it says that:”Exception in thread “main” java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: cn/com/MainApplication : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0″. I know the 51.0 means the version jdk1.7, but I am using JDK1.7.

In reply to Re: Re: Error “Unrecognized VM option ‘TieredStopAtLevel=1′” by James Balaji

STS4 in general supports implementing and running applications on top of a JDK7. You need to configure the JDK7 runtime environment in the preferences (as you probably did) and select it as the default for the JavaSE7 execution environment. Make sure it appears correctly as the entry in your project classpath containers in the packag explorer.

In addition to that you need to make sure to compile your project on a Java7 level by setting the compiler level in the Java compiler preferences for your project.

Then in the launch configuration, you should make sure that the JDK7 is used to launch the app. This “could not find main class” is usually related to some misconfigured JRE settings in the areas described above.

Hope this helps!

This problem is a bit complicated to analyze remotely, since it is not totally clear where this comes from. Here is what you could do to solve this:

  • go to the “Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Update Sites”, select the one for the Spring Tools 4 and press “Reload”. Maybe that solves the problem already.
  • If not, remove that update site from the preferences and restart your IDE. Then try the install again.
  • If all that doesn’t help, try to install the feautes manually, as described here: https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/wiki/Installation#install-sprin…

Sorry for the late answer, somehow missed the question here. You could analyze the underlying issue by opening up the console, opne an OSGi Host Console, and type in “ss” for “short status”. If there is anything showing up as “INSTALLED”, something went wrong with regards to the dependency resolution of bundles. This is hard to debug and to solve. In that case, I would recommend to download a ready-to-use distribution from https://spring.io/tools and go from there. If the list of bundles shows up fine (nothing in the “INSTALLED” state), then the wizard to create a new project using Initializr (e.g.) should show up (“Spring Starter Project”) in a “Spring” category.

Understanding and quickly navigating source code is essential for coding. The new Spring Tools 4 understands your Spring-Boot-based source code and allows you to quickly get an overview and navigate to the important pieces of your Spring apps. Finding Spring elements and navigating to them has never been easier.

Smart Code Editing

Code completion is a critical part of working with source code. The all-new Spring Tools 4 provides smart code completions for the Spring elements in your app.

Runtime Information In Your Editor

Spring Tools 4 now bridges the gap between your source code and running Spring Boot applications. By taking advantage of the Spring Boot Actuators, we enriched the source code with detailed information from the running app (e.g., exact bean wiring information, conditional reports, configuration, details, and more).

Deploying to Cloud Foundry

Last, but not least, the Spring Boot Dashboard provides a direct integration with Cloud Foundry runtimes. In the same way as your local boot apps, a Cloud Foundry section in your dashboard will list the deployed and running apps, allows you to start and stop them. It also offers you to deploy your project via drag&drop to the Cloud Foundry instance and even debug a running app on Cloud Foundry.

Spring is everywhere

Spring is everywhere. It is at the heart of most modern business applications, in the center of modern cloud-based microservice applications, and used by millions of developers around the globe. And Spring Boot is at the heart of the current renaissance of Spring, making it easy, convenient, and extremely efficient to implement applications and services on top of Java.
