Boosting Spring Developer Productivity with AI-Driven Development Using the Spring CLI

Mark Pollack, Senior Staff Engineer, VMware

Creating applications that meet company standards can be complex, and adding new features to existing projects over time can be even more challenging. Join us as we show how the Spring CLI, a command-line tool, accelerates development while adhering to best practices.

Learn how to create new applications effortlessly using the “spring boot new” command, and enhance existing applications with the “spring boot add” command. These commands leverage pre-validated projects from the Spring team and easily integrate with your code repositories. We will introduce you to the “spring ai add” command, which uses generative AI to generate goal-specific code tailored to your requirements.

We will also show how to streamline deployment on the Azure Spring Apps platform by orchestrating the execution of other CLI programs, such as Azure’s “az” CLI.

All levels of Spring developers are welcome.
