spring-boot

Use when building, reviewing, testing, securing or configuring a Spring Boot 4 / Framework 7 backend — controllers, services, Spring Data JPA, application.yml, SecurityFilterChain, slice tests. NOT plain modern-Java language work like records or virtual threads (that is `java`); NOT engine-level SQL schema/index/EXPLAIN (that is `postgresdb`).

# Spring Boot backends (Boot 4 / Framework 7)

A Spring Boot app is **a thin web layer delegating to a transactional service layer over
Spring Data JPA repositories** — wired by constructor injection, configured by typed
`@ConfigurationProperties`, locked down by a `SecurityFilterChain` bean. Controllers
validate input and delegate; they never own business logic, transactions, or persistence.
Hold that shape and most "where does this go?" questions answer themselves.

**Pinned stack** (verify against the project's `pom.xml`/`build.gradle` — do not assume):
Spring Boot 4.0 (GA 2025-11-20), Spring Framework 7, Java 17 baseline / Java 25 LTS, Jakarta
EE 11 (`jakarta.*`, never `javax.*`), Jackson 3, Spring Security 7, Spring Data JPA /
Hibernate 7, JUnit 5 + Testcontainers, Maven 3.9 / Gradle.
