Hacking Java and Spring Boot Applications with Visual Studio Code
summary
Visual Studio Code plus specific extensions builds a lightweight Java/Spring Boot workflow: use Spring Initializr to generate a Maven or Gradle project, add starters from a GUI that updates pom.xml, run the app with the Spring Boot Dashboard (live URLs and bean routing appear), set breakpoints and inspect variables with the Java Debugger, run JUnit tests in the Test Explorer (tests run with no failures), and get language features from Red Hat Java language server and ML suggestions via IntelliCode preview. One source file change (a factory method) proves editing and debugging work end to end.
