Overview

Spring Initializr is a REST API that generates Spring Boot projects, allowing you to customize the build system and the project coordinates, the language and version, the packaging and the dependencies to add to the project. The API can be exposed as a service, and the publicly available default instance for the service, run by Pivotal, is available at https://start.spring.io/.

The API can be used standalone or embedded in other tools, notably the IntelliJ IDEA plugin for Spring Boot.
