For those of you upgrading from Spring Boot 2.2.0 to Spring Boot 2.2.1, if you relied on the @ConfigurationProperties scanning support, please note that this feature is now disabled by default. Scanning of @ConfigurationProperties needs to be explicitly opted into by adding the @ConfigurationPropertiesScan annotation. More details related to this change can be found here.

We plan to make Spring Boot 2.2 generally-available in mid-October. Now is a great time to try out Spring Boot 2.2 and provide feedback so that we can try and fix things before GA. If you want to get started with 2.2 and try out the new features, you can bootstrap a new project on https://start.spring.io.

As mentioned in the announcement last year, the Spring Boot 1.x line has reached end of life. Spring Boot 1.5.22 which was released earlier today will be the last release in the 1.x. line.

We expect most users to have upgraded their applications to Spring Boot 2.x. For those that haven’t migrated yet, we strongly advise doing so as soon as possible. There are detailed instructions on how to migrate from 1.x to 2.x in the migration guide. For a smooth upgrade experience, we recommend upgrading in phases instead of jumping straight to the latest stable release. Once the upgrade from the latest 1.5.x version to the latest 2.0.x version is complete, you should upgrade to the latest release in the 2.1.x line.

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce that Spring Boot 2.0.9 has been released and is now available from repo.spring.io and Maven Central.

This is the last release in 2.0 line. Please consider upgrading to Spring Boot 2.1 if you haven’t already done so.

The quickest way to generate Spring Boot projects is through start.spring.io. The site provides a curated list of dependencies that you can add to your application based on the selected Spring Boot version. You can also choose the language, build system and JVM version for the project. Over the years, the popularity of start.spring.io as the tool for generating Spring projects has grown exponentially and millions of projects are generated every year using the site.

For the past few months, we’ve been working on a complete overhaul of the project generation API. To better understand the motivation behind this, take a look at the project structure below:
