Spring Boot is a framework for building Java applications. It is built on top of Spring and includes features such as embedded Tomcat, Jetty, or Undertow servers and automatic configuration to simplify development. Spring Initializr can be used to set up Spring Boot projects with common dependencies using Maven or Gradle. It allows generating a basic "Hello World" application quickly. Spring Boot applications can also use Spring Data JPA to easily interact with databases and auto-configuration to simplify app configuration.
