A pom.xml for a Spring MVC application used to list a dozen dependencies, each pinned to a version that had to agree with all the others. A starter collapses that into one line. This topic is starters as dependency management, and the other half of "it just works" — a server packaged inside your own jar, so there is nothing external to install before your application can answer a request.
