## What it is
An official Spring Boot starter that autoconfigures MyBatis, the SQL mapping framework, for Spring Boot applications. It handles session factory setup, mapper scanning, and provides test autoconfiguration support.

## Use cases
- use MyBatis with Spring Boot
- autoconfigure MyBatis mappers in a Spring Boot app
- connect a Spring Boot app to a database with MyBatis
- write integration tests for MyBatis mappers
- build a Spring Boot REST API backed by MyBatis
- use MyBatis with GraalVM native image

## When to choose
- you prefer writing SQL with MyBatis mappers over JPA/Hibernate
- you want zero-config MyBatis setup in Spring Boot
- you need MyBatis test support in Spring Boot tests

## When to avoid
- you want a full ORM with automatic schema generation and entity relationships
- you don't use Spring Boot
- you prefer Spring Data JPA abstractions

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: orm, database, database-driver, testing
- domain: databases, backend, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: jvm
- tags: mybatis, spring-boot-starter, sql-mapper, autoconfiguration, spring-boot
