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)

    Dependency Injection
    Spring manages object creation and wiring through DI, promoting loose coupling and modularity.

  • Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP)

    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
    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.
