NB-SpringBoot

NetBeans IDE plugin supporting programming with Spring Boot.

Requirements and Installation

This plugin requires NetBeans 8.2 or above running on JDK 8 or above.

To perform a manual install download the desired nbm package from the releases page , go to Tools > Plugins > Downloaded and click the Add Plugins... button. Choose the downloaded nbm package file then click Install.

The plugin may be available in the Plugin Portal Update Center thus it can be downloaded and installed trough Tools > Plugins > Available Plugins. Please note that new releases become available on the Update Center after they are verified by the folks at the NetBeans Plugin Portal. Note that current NetBeans Plugin Portal (http://plugins.netbeans.org) is undergoing migration at Apache Foundation. A new plugin portal is being set-up (currently at http://netbeans-vm.apache.org/pluginportal but subject to change) and may become the new official source of plugins.
