1. Introduction to Spring Framework
The Spring framework is a Java platform that provides comprehensive and extensive basic support for the development of Java applications. Spring helps developers solve basic problems in development, allowing developers to focus on application development. The Spring framework itself is also carefully built according to the design pattern, which allows us to integrate the Spring framework in the development environment without worrying about how Spring works in the background.
The Spring framework has integrated more than 20 modules so far. These modules are mainly divided into core containers, data access/integration, Web, AOP (aspect-oriented programming), tools, messaging and test modules as shown in the figure below.
