Spring-boot-devtools for autobuilding application in IntelliJ IDE

Hi,

When building application in IntelliJ developer has to build and run the application every single time.

It's really tiresome to do this repeatedly. I found an article online which is by making use of Spring dependency to achieve this.

<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-devtools</artifactId>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>

I'm adding few links for reference from official sites-

  1. https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/spring-boot.html#application-update-policies
  2. https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/reference/using/devtools.html#using.devtools.diagnosing-classloading-issues

Hit the like if you find this article helpful.!

Thanks for reading.
