What it does

Quickly scaffold a production-ready Spring Boot project in Kotlin with pre-configured dependencies, testing frameworks, and best practices.

Overview

Create Spring Boot Kotlin Project is a skill that scaffolds a production-ready Spring Boot project in Kotlin using the Spring Initializr API. It downloads a pre-configured project template with WebFlux, R2DBC (PostgreSQL), reactive Redis and MongoDB, validation, caching, and Testcontainers, then adds additional dependencies like springdoc-openapi and ArchUnit for API documentation and architecture testing.

Key Features

Automated Project Download - Uses curl with Spring Initializr to download a pre-configured Gradle Kotlin project with Java 21, Spring Boot 3.4.5, and a curated set of dependencies
Reactive Stack - Configures WebFlux for reactive web, R2DBC for reactive PostgreSQL access, and reactive drivers for Redis and MongoDB out of the box
Testing Infrastructure - Includes Testcontainers for integration testing with real database instances, plus ArchUnit for enforcing architecture rules
API Documentation - Adds springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui for automatic Swagger/OpenAPI documentation generation
Docker Compose Ready - Requires Docker and Docker Compose as prerequisites, supporting containerized development and testing workflows

Who is this for?

This skill is for Kotlin developers who want to quickly bootstrap Spring Boot projects with a reactive technology stack. It is particularly useful for teams building microservices with reactive PostgreSQL, Redis, and MongoDB who want a standardized project template that includes testing infrastructure and API documentation from the start.
