Spring IO brings together the core Spring APIs into a cohesive and versioned foundational Platform for modern applications. On top of this foundation it also provides domain-specific runtimes (DSRs) optimized for specific application types. Please see the Spring IO Platform website for more information.
How you use the platform depends on whether you're using Maven or Gradle to build your application.
The Platform provides a pom file that you can either import into your application's pom, or use as your application's parent pom. Please refer to the [documentation on using the Platform with Maven] Platform Maven docs for more information.
The Platform provides a properties file that lists versions of all of the Platform's components and their dependencies. This properties file can be used in conjuction with Spring Boot's Gradle plugin to provide dependency versions. Please refer to the documentation on using the Platform with Gradle for more information.
