Magical Beans and Mystery

Tiffany Jernigan - / Timo Salm - Broadcom

So you just created a Spring Boot project at start.spring.io, but then what? Don’t worry! Tiffany was just there too, and now we are here to help. Join us as we explore Spring at a beginner’s pace.

Even though Spring makes Java development so much easier, the initial learning curve can feel daunting (there are over 20 years of resources after all!). Let’s break down what to look at first, and how to continue learning from there.

We’ll start with the Spring Framework and its core building blocks, such as the IoC container and these magical beans. Next, we’ll dive into Spring Boot, an extension of the Spring Framework that simplifies and speeds up application development through autoconfiguration for various integrations and more.

By the end of this talk, you will better understand Spring and how to create and run your own Spring applications.
