Summary


Spring Boot takes care of the boilerplate configuration that's often required in Spring applications. Auto-configuration can be overridden or disabled, and framework versions can be overridden too. Spring Boot enhances Spring configuration externalization mechanisms by using properties/YAML files, which are it's easier to override Spring auto-configuration by using Properties and YAML file.

Spring Boot provides fine-tuning with logging frameworks, and you can exclude some default frameworks from your application. Spring Boot also auto-configures a simple whitelabel error page for you.

In the next chapter, we'll understand Spring Cloud and Spring CLI installation.
