Webinar: Building 'Bootiful'­ Applications with Spring Boot

Alright, so maybe "bootiful" won't ever work, but I tried, and it was worth it too because you're reading this. Spring Boot, the new convention-over-configuration centric framework from the Spring team at Pivotal, marries Spring's flexibility with conventional, common sense defaults to make application development not just fly, but pleasant!

Join Spring developer advocate Josh Long for a look at what Spring Boot is, why it's turning heads, why you should consider it for your next application (REST, micro services, web, batch, big data, integration, whatever!) and how to get started.

I'd REALLY like to see one screen cast where you show us how to handle those not so simple CRUD operations. I understand that the basic extended repositories are really powerful, but every time I come across a more complex model this just breaks.

Some of my concerns in detail: lazy/eager loading, nested resources, ResourceSupport extended Resources and id's (I'd really like to use an "id" field...), etc...

Hope you guys will some day help us freelancer-ish people out with these issues, because I can't find anything for these.
