Java, Spring Boot, Microservices, Cloud and DevOps Tutorials
Intellij IDEA is the most popular IDE for Java development and there are tons of features to explore and become more productive. We all know about Live Templates which can be used to expand a small expression to common code snippets.
Recently I came to know about File Templates, and I realized I can put it to good use and be more productive.
We can use IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition for working with Spring Boot applications, as we don’t need support for configuring servers like Tomcat, Wildfly, etc., and can simply run the applications by running the main() method.
However, there is no provision in IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition to create a Spring Boot application directly, the way it is supported in the Ultimate Edition.
