Here, we'll explore an example of how to set up a Git-backed Config Server and use it in a simple REST application server.
Let's go to http://start.spring.io, select Maven and Spring Boot 2.0.2.RELEASE, and set the Artifact to cloud-config-app. Also select dependencies for Config Server and add that module. Then generate the application and you will be able to download a ZIP file with a preconfigured project.
