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.

How do I handle exceptions in Java Spring Boot code reviews?

Exception handling in Java Spring Boot reviews should enforce meaningful unchecked domain exceptions and wrap technical errors with context to ensure robust error reporting.

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?

Structuring Maven or Gradle packages for Java Spring Boot requires following conventional project layouts to keep types, methods, and constants predictable across teams.
