Dear Spring community,

It is my pleasure to announce that Spring Framework 4.2.4 and 4.1.9 are available from repo.spring.io and Maven Central!

4.2.4 addresses a few regressions in the 4.2.x line and includes many fixes and enhancements, with no immediate issues remaining. 4.2.4 is a recommended upgrade for all 4.x users now. Please note that the 4.2.x line moves into maintenance mode at this point, with a low-volume 4.2.5 maintenance release scheduled for mid February.

After 4.2.4 and 4.1.9 earlier today, it is my pleasure to announce that Spring Framework 3.2.16 is now available.

Greetings Spring Community,

I hope you enjoyed my blog series on React.js + Spring Data REST. In that series, you got to build up a rich web app with hypermedia controls, conditional operations, messaging, and security.

To make things even better, that series has been bundled up and converted into a tutorial: https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/react-and-spring-data-rest/

Some key updates made along the way:

• require.js has been replaced with webpack as the JavaScript module builder/loader of choice
• The code is upgraded to ES6. This means that some of JavaScript's newest features like classes, arrow functions, and more are being used.
• bower has been replaced by npm as the package manager of choice
