30. Introduction to Frameworks (e.g., Spring Basics)

Frameworks play a crucial role in modern application development by promoting best practices, enhancing productivity, and ensuring maintainability. Spring Framework is one of the most prominent frameworks in the Java ecosystem due to its modularity, flexibility, and extensive adoption in enterprise applications. It leverages principles such as Inversion of Control and Dependency Injection to facilitate the creation of clean and scalable software solutions, while Spring Boot simplifies the setup process for new applications.
