Introductory demo to Bootify.io - a generator for spring boot java apps that has a great free tier

If you are a spring boot user or curious about spring boot, this activity will be a great use of 30 minutes. Learn to use Bootify.io free tier to generate a spring boot application that has many to many relationships, swagger, and the h2 database console. We'll generate an application, import it into IntelliJ, run it, and walk around the code a little. Background: I enjoy using the Bootify.io SaaS. I'm an $89/year customer, and I used the free tier for a while too. Bootify does not pay me. I'm just thrilled with it. This demo will not try to get you to buy a Bootify subscription. The point is that Bootify is a great too for generate nice working examples. I struggle a bit with JPA many to many relationships and Bootify makes them in a way that works and is great to learn from. Note: this is my first activity in the THAT community. I'm thrilled to be joining you!
