Check out the full series of Questions Management tutorial here.
The API Question Service is the next service in Phase 1 that we need to build for the Questions Management application. In this tutorial, I will take a look at some important steps in creating a new Spring Boot project for the API Question Service.
In the New Spring Starter Project window, after filling in our project, the Location section also points to the api folder for the questions-management project:
For the dependencies to be used for the api-question-service project, similar to the API Category Service, we will only use the following dependencies:
- Reactive Web: See also Spring WebFlux
- Lombok: more about Introduction about Project Lombok
- DevTools: See also Introduction about DevTools in Spring Boot
Result:
Next, I’ll revise this project a little bit so that it uses the parent project of the questions-management project.
In this project’s pom.xml file, I will delete the current <parent> and <properties> declarations for using the parent project of the questions-management project:

Then declare the api-question-service project as a module of the questions-management project as follows:
