SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Establishes clear, consistent conventions to reduce bugs, improve readability, and make Spring Boot Java services easier to review and maintain across teams.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Naming & Structure: Conventions for types, methods, constants, and a recommended Maven/Gradle project layout to keep projects predictable.
  • Immutability & Types: Guidance to prefer immutable types, records, final fields, and safe Optional handling to minimize shared mutable state.
  • Robust Error Handling & Testing: Recommendations for meaningful unchecked domain exceptions, wrapping technical errors with context, and testing expectations (JUnit 5, AssertJ, Mockito).
  • Use Case: Apply these standards when authoring or reviewing Java 17+ Spring Boot services to enforce immutability, sensible Optional usage, clean stream pipelines, and conventional package organization.

Quick Start

Use the java-coding-standards skill to review MarketService.java for naming, immutability, Optional usage, stream clarity, and exception handling.

Can I use Java records and Optional for immutable Spring Boot services?▼

Java Spring Boot services can use records, final fields, and safe Optional handling to minimize shared mutable state and enforce immutability-by-default patterns.

Does this Java coding standard apply to Java 17 Spring Boot projects?▼

These Java coding standards specifically apply to Java 17+ Spring Boot projects, covering naming, bounded generics, stream practices, and JUnit 5 testing conventions.

How do I structure Maven and Gradle packages for Java Spring Boot?▼
