Spring config sprawl
XML, YAML, Java config, profiles — every Spring Boot project re-litigates the same setup decisions for two weeks before shipping a feature.
Spring Boot Template v1.0
A pragmatic Spring Boot
A pragmatic Spring Boot
foundation.
For Java teams that ship. Hexagonal architecture, OAuth2 + Keycloak, structured observability, and a Docker-ready local environment — wired from day one.

Modular, hexagonal scale
// Root problem Every Spring project
Every Spring project
re-litigates the same setup.
Auth bolt-ons
OAuth2, JWT, Keycloak — every team wires the same security plumbing differently. Half of them have subtle bugs.
Build & deploy chaos
Maven vs. Gradle, multi-module structure, Dockerfile, Helm chart — bespoke for every project, none of it reusable.
// Three pillars
Designed for production from day one.
01
Hexagonal architecture
Ports and adapters with clear boundaries. Domain logic stays free of framework concerns; infrastructure is swappable.
02
Production defaults
OAuth2 resource server, Spring Security, Flyway migrations, Resilience4j, Micrometer — wired and configured from day one.
03
Observability built in
Structured logging, distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry), Prometheus metrics, health checks — production-grade from commit one.
// Out of the box
What's already wired.
OAuth2 + Keycloak
Resource server with JWT validation, introspection, scope-based authorization. Plug your IdP in and ship.
Multi-database support
PostgreSQL primary, MySQL alternative. JPA + Flyway migrations + connection pooling pre-tuned for production.
OpenAPI-first
Spring Doc generates schema + Swagger UI automatically. Contract-driven; clients can codegen against you from day one.
Async messaging
Kafka or RabbitMQ adapters; outbox pattern for reliable delivery. Built-in dead-letter handling and retries.
Circuit breakers
Resilience4j wired into every external call. Bulkheads, retries, rate limiting — defaults that survive load tests.
One-command bootstrap
Local dev environment with Docker Compose: Postgres, Keycloak, Kafka, observability stack — all running in 90 seconds.
// Engagement
Same engagement model as Pragmatic .NET.
