In plain English

This is a curated list of learning resources for Spring Boot, a Java-based framework commonly used to build backend web services and APIs. Spring Boot is not explained in the README itself, but the short version: it is a tool that helps Java developers set up and run web applications with minimal manual configuration. This repository collects links to tutorials, blog series, open-source example projects, and reference websites for people learning Spring Boot. The README is written almost entirely in Chinese. It is organized into four sections: blogs, open-source projects, websites, and miscellaneous resources. The blogs section links to several Chinese-language tutorial series covering Spring Boot from introductory to practical levels, along with two English-language tutorial sites (Mkyong and Baeldung). The open-source projects section lists completed applications built with Spring Boot, including blog platforms, e-commerce systems, payment service integrations covering Alipay and WeChat Pay, HR management tools, a stock index crawler, and several full-stack systems that pair Spring Boot with Vue.js on the frontend. Most of these are hosted on GitHub or the Chinese code-hosting platform Gitee. The websites section links to the official Spring Boot site, its English reference documentation, and Chinese-language video course platforms. The miscellaneous section includes a link to a related curated list for Spring Cloud, a companion set of tools for building distributed systems, along with a general developer resource portal. There is no code in this repository. It is a link collection maintained by the author and open to contributions via an issue thread listed at the top of the README.
