Automate Code Changes - Bringing OpenRewrite to the IDE
summary
Demonstrates embedding OpenRewrite recipes into the Spring Tools language server so Eclipse and VS Code can run automated migrations and quick fixes. Shows concrete runs: a Spring Boot 2→3 migration that updates parent and Java version to 17, swaps package imports to Jakarta, changes MySQL connector coordinates, edits pom and properties, and converts strings to text blocks. Validation uses JDT for fast squiggles while quick fixes using OpenRewrite apply the edits; initial memory/performance issues appear but the IDE integration otherwise works.
