Quick Start

This page is the recommended entry for consumers who want to build a new web application on top of the Geelato framework foundation.

Recommended Consumption Path

1. Import geelato-framework-bom
2. Add geelato-framework-starter
3. Start from geelato-sample-quickstart
4. Add business modules only after the minimal skeleton is running

What You Need

• Java 17
• Maven build environment
• A Spring Boot compatible runtime
• Optional database services if you go beyond the minimal H2-based sample

Minimal Goal

The shortest successful path is:

• The application starts successfully
• A primary datasource is available
• JdbcTemplate, Dao, ORM, and web auto-configuration are wired
• A sample endpoint can be called from the browser or curl

Suggested Reading Order

• Sample Quickstart
• BOM and Starter
• Core Modules
• PlatformWebRuntime

What Is Out of Scope for the Minimal Start

The minimal start intentionally does not require:

• platform-specific upload runtime
• market, message, schedule, or auth extension modules
• designer-side metadata management capabilities
• full OpenAPI governance
