I am pleased to announce the first and final release candidate of Spring Modulith 0.1. The release primarily is a preparation for the GA one to follow Spring Boot 3.0 GA some time next week. That said, we managed to sneak a couple of improvements into the Application Module Canvas that will surely be helpful. The Canvas now lists Spring bean references into other modules explicitly and thus documents the required interface of the module, just like constructor arguments describe the dependencies of a class.

Also, the Canvas now includes value types exposed by a module. These types are identified by either the annotations or interfaces provided by the jMolecules DDD library…

Hi, Spring fans!

Dear Spring community,

It is my pleasure to announce that Spring Framework 6.0.0 is generally available from Maven Central now! This is the start of a new framework generation for 2023 and beyond, embracing current and upcoming innovations in OpenJDK and the Java ecosystem. At the same time, we carefully designed it as a straightforward upgrade from Spring Framework 5.3.x for modern-day runtime environments.

As a major revision of the core framework, Spring Framework 6.0 comes with a Java 17+ baseline and a move to Jakarta EE 9+ (in the jakarta namespace), with a focus on the recently released Jakarta EE 10 APIs such as Servlet 6.0 and JPA 3.1. This provides access to the latest web containers such as Tomcat 10.1 and the latest persistence providers such as Hibernate ORM 6.1. Don't be stuck on Java EE 8, make the leap to the jakarta…

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce that Spring Framework 5.3.24 is available now.

Spring Framework 5.3.24 includes 33 fixes and improvements.
