Spring Framework is a powerful Java platform that provides comprehensive infrastructure support for developing Java applications. It simplifies enterprise application development by offering a wide range of features like dependency injection, aspect-oriented programming (AOP), and container management.
Key Features
Dependency Injection (DI)
Spring manages object creation and wiring through DI, promoting loose coupling and modularity.Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP)
AOP allows you to separate cross-cutting concerns (e.g., logging, security) from business logic.Container Management
Spring’s container (e.g.,ApplicationContext
) handles bean lifecycle and configuration.Spring Boot
Spring Boot simplifies creating standalone, production-grade Spring applications with minimal setup.

Example Code
@Configuration
public class AppConfig {
@Bean
public MyService myService() {
return new MyService();
}
}
This snippet demonstrates a basic Spring configuration class.
