Spring MVC is one of the most popular Java Web Frameworks around. Spring MVC allows developers to quickly implement J2EE applications and helps to greatly reduces the amount of written code thus producing a shorter development cycle. This tutorial is intended for entry level software engineers and developers interested in learning Spring MVC. No prior knowledge of Spring MVC is required, but this tutorial does assume a prior knowledge of Java and J2EE. It is also assumed that the reader has prior knowledge of web application software development. This tutorial starts from the very beginning of building a Spring MVC application and gives step by step instructions on how to build and deploy a Spring MVC application.
