JHipster is a free and open-source application generator used to quickly develop modern web applications and Microservices using Angular or React (JavaScript library) and the Spring Framework.
Overview
JHipster provides tools to generate a project with a Java stack on the server side (using Spring Boot) and a responsive Web front-end on the client side (with Angular/React and Bootstrap). It can also create microservice stack with support for Netflix OSS, Docker and Kubernetes.
The term 'JHipster' comes from 'Java Hipster', as its initial goal was to use all the modern and 'hype' tools available at the time.[2] Today, it has reached a more enterprise goal, with a strong focus on developer productivity, tooling and quality.[3]
