Survival guide to continuously align and upgrade your Spring dependencies
summary
Shows a concrete workflow and tools to keep Spring-based projects up to date: use OpenRewrite recipes (3,000+ community recipes, born at Netflix) invoked as Maven/Gradle plugins to apply type-safe code refactors and fix deprecations during minor and major upgrades, and use Application Advisor to compute an orchestrated upgrade plan across multi-module and multi-team projects, mapping component versions, stopping for missing internal recipes, and following an incremental snapshot strategy to minimize breakage.
