Spring: Your next Java microframework
summary
Claims that Spring Boot can act like a Java microframework with concrete techniques and demos: live reload (including remote) via Spring Boot DevTools demonstrated against a WebFlux + R2DBC sample app on Docker Compose; startup tuning showing a baseline ≈1.5s from Dave Syer’s measurements and practical wins from lazy initialization and Spring Context Indexer; functional bean registration and functional routing as annotation-free options; reproducible, layered container images built with spring-boot:build-image (Cloud Native Buildpacks) and tested path toward GraalVM native images.
