Spring Boot helps kick start your apps. Ken Krueger gave a Boot talk last night at GatorJUG. This was 2 solid hours that encapsulated what would have taken much longer to learn on your own. He uploaded his slides here:

Check tham out and decide for yourself whether you want to use Spring and Boot to begin your new app.
Ken pointed out that there are lots of tutorials at the www.gopivotal.com website that you can read in an average of about 15 minutes each. They're designed to be small bites that you can go over at lunch.
Thanks, Ken!
