Spring Boot with Kotlin, Kofu and Coroutines

Explore a live coding session from Spring I/O 2019 in Barcelona that demonstrates the transformation of a Spring Boot application from Java, annotations, and JPA to an idiomatic Kotlin application. Witness the gradual evolution as the presenter leverages Coroutines, WebFlux, Kofu configuration DSL (from Spring Fu incubator), and R2DBC (Reactive SQL). Gain insights into the official support for Coroutines in Spring (Framework, Boot, Data) and learn about Kofu, the Kotlin DSL developed in the Spring Fu incubator. Discover how Kofu enables explicit configuration of Spring Boot applications, enhancing their efficiency. This 43-minute conference talk offers a comprehensive look at modernizing Spring Boot applications with cutting-edge Kotlin technologies.
