Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! This week, I'm home, in San Francisco, California, in the US, where the fears around Coronavirus have heated up and made things problematic for those of us who travel. It looks like, at least for the immediate future, I'll be - basically - grounded. Stay safe out there, my friends.

The good news is that this will let me get to a ton more other things like the blogs, A Bootiful Podcast and Spring Tips and of course my Reactive Spring book. And of course, we've got a ton of things to get to today in today's installment of This Week in Spring, so let's get to it!
