Excellent! Thank you!

And, to be fair, I've also since discovered https://start.spring.io.

It's worth pointing out that both of these sites exist specifically to address my frustration in just getting started with a Java web stack, but it's taken me a couple of weeks to discover them.

we somehow missed having a link to start.spring.io from the website front page. We'll get that addressed, thanks for this comment.
