Hi

You can use the maven for including Spring framework dependency in your Java project.

Here is the dependency of Spring core latest:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
    <version>5.3.9</version>
</dependency>

Maven dependency for org.springframework - spring-core version 5.3.9 is released 14 Jul 2021.

After adding the above code you will be able to use this library in your project.

You also define a prooerty in your pom.xml file as shown below:

<properties>
  <org.springframework.version>5.3.9</org.springframework.version>
</properties>

Then use the property in following manner:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
    <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
    <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>

This is this easy way of using Spring Framework maven dependency in your project.

If you have plan to unit test your appliation then you add following dependency in your project:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-test</artifactId>
    <version>${spring.version}</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Thanks
