Spring Boot 2: Building a RESTful Web Service

#ICYMI: In this article, we will learn how to develop a simple “Hello World!” web application that highlights some of Spring Boot’s key features. We use Maven to build this project since most IDEs support it.

We use the latest release of Spring Boot 2.0.5.RELEASE which requires Java 8 or 9, Spring Framework 5.0.9.RELEASE or above and Maven 3.2+. https://goo.gl/fqG3vB
