Multiple controllers with Spring Boot

Remember, when you want to have multiple controllers with Spring Boot, you should always name them differently in the annotation, otherwise they will not work

So these two together will NOT work (or just one of them will work)



These two instead WILL work.

and the fun part is when you use a the controller in combination with for example Thymeleaf to render the frontend. That will not work @RestController is pure for REST API. when you need it for the rendering with a template engine use @Controller ;-)
Very well said, Frank :D Thanks for passing by!

The "Code-Rich" Organization: How Automatic Code Generation Will Revolutionize Everything

  I put on paper a couple of thoughts about AI and Large Language Models (LLM) for automatic code generation in the development process. My thesis is that the current organizations are mostly “code-thin”, where only the basic Business Processes are modeled through software, while in the future we will have “code-rich" organizations boosted through the abundant and cheap AI and LLM Generated software code. These “code-rich” organizations, where every possible business process is software based - will outperform the usual "code-thin" organizations, where software is “hand-made” and expensive. Feedback would be very, very appreciated. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/code-rich-organization-how-automatic-code-generation-de-collibus
