If, like 99% of Spring Boot use cases, you're implementing "microservices" you should look into Javalin[1]. Javalin will forever sour you to Spring Boot the first time you try it. No annotations in sight, no code generation, no special IDE support involved, no multi-page stack traces, no POM gymnastics, no magic. With Java 11 type inference the boilerplate is reduced to near parity with Kotlin. [1] https://javalin.io/ https://javalin.io/
