🚀 Spring Framework 7 and Spring Boot 4 are simplifying how we handle service-to-service communication! In this tutorial, I'll show you how the new HTTP Interfaces feature eliminates some of the boilerplate code that's been slowing us down. We're looking at this feature by building a Todo API that communicates with external services. You'll see exactly how the new approach with HTTP Interfaces makes your code cleaner and more maintainable. I'll walk you through both the traditional approach and the modern Spring Boot 4 way, so you can see the dramatic difference for yourself. 🎯 What You'll Learn: ✅ How to migrate from RestTemplate to RestClient (the future of Spring REST communication) ✅ Creating declarative HTTP interfaces without writing implementation code ✅ The new @ImportHttpServices annotation that eliminates proxy factory boilerplate ✅ Building a complete CRUD API with minimal code using Spring Boot 4 ✅ Advanced configuration options for grouping and customizing multiple HTTP services 📋 Key Takeaways: ✅ RestTemplate is officially being deprecated ✅ Spring Boot 4's modularization requires explicit imports ✅ One annotation (@ImportHttpServices) replaces complex bean configuration ✅ Perfect for microservices architecture and API-first development ⏰ Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction & What's New in Spring Boot 4 1:45 Setting Up the Project with Spring Initializr 3:20 Traditional Service Implementation with RestClient 8:15 The Problem with Boilerplate Code 9:30 Introducing HTTP Interfaces 11:45 The Old Way: Manual Proxy Factory Configuration 14:00 The NEW Way: @ImportHttpServices Magic 16:30 Testing Our Implementation 18:00 Advanced Configuration & Best Practices 🔗 Resources: JSONPlaceholder API: Full Spring Framework 7 Playlist: GitHub Repo: 👍 If this helped you write cleaner Spring code, hit that like button and subscribe for more Spring Framework 7 & Spring Boot 4 tutorials!
