Spring moved away from XML ages ago. I work on a 6 year old Spring project and it has never had a single line of XML in it.

I'm fond of saying that all great code earns it's right to become good code by starting as trash...

But I still think we should all quietly and politely let Spring die a simple dignified death, as soon as possible.

Out of wildly morbid curiosity, do Maven and Ant still shit all over each other to make sure no one has any real idea what the build inputs and outputs are?

I shouldn't ask things I don't really want to know, though. My inbox is gonna be full of Java apologists.

No idea, I've never used either of those tools.

I think some people still use Maven, but I use Gradle in all of mine. Gradle build files are written in Kotlin instead of XML like Maven.

That's a relief to hear. They were quite bad. Or rather, the way most teams used them was quite bad.

I've heard nice things about Gradle. Of course that was mainly from people with deep psychological scars after working with Ant and Maven...

Thanks, my works' codebase feels old now.
