## What it is
A Maven archetype that scaffolds a Spring MVC web application with no XML configuration. Generated projects include Thymeleaf, Bootstrap, Spring Data JPA with Hibernate/HSQLDB, Spring Security, and JUnit/Mockito test setup.

## Use cases
- bootstrap a new Spring MVC web application
- generate a starter project with Spring Security and JPA preconfigured
- create a Java web app template in IntelliJ or Eclipse from an archetype
- learn a no-xml Spring MVC setup with Thymeleaf and Bootstrap
- quickly scaffold a project for a Spring MVC tutorial or prototype

## When to choose
- starting a classic Spring MVC (non-Boot) Java web project from scratch
- you want a ready-made template with security, JPA, and tests wired up
- teaching or learning Spring MVC project structure

## When to avoid
- starting a new project where Spring Boot initializr is an option
- you need actively maintained dependencies or modern Java/Tomcat versions
- building a frontend-heavy SPA that only needs a backend API

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: web-framework, templating, auth, testing, orm
- domain: web-development, developer-tools, backend
- platform: jvm, cross-platform
- tags: maven-archetype, spring-mvc, spring-boot, thymeleaf, project-template, scaffolding, spring-security, jpa, boilerplate
