Spring annotations are present in the org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure and org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.condition packages are commonly known as Spring Boot annotations.

Spring Boot Annotations are a form of metadata that provides data about a spring application. Spring Boot is built on the top of the spring and contains all the features of spring. And is becoming a favorite of developers these days because of its rapid production-ready environment which enables the developers to directly focus on the logic instead of struggling with the configuration and setup. Spring Boot is a microservice-based framework and making a production-ready application in it takes very little time. Following are some of the features of Spring Boot:

• It allows for avoiding heavy configuration of XML which is present in the spring
• It provides easy maintenance and creation of REST endpoints

• Deployment is very easy, war and jar files can be easily deployed in the Tomcat server

Annotations are used to provide supplemental information about a program. It does not have a direct effect on the operation of the code they annotate. It does not change the action of the compiled program. So in this article, we are going to discuss some important Spring Boot Annotations that are available in Spring Boot with examples.
