Spring Boot Server-Sent Events Tutorial Using WebFlux

Date: 2020-09-29

This tutorial demonstrates implementing Server-Sent Events (SSE) in a Spring Boot application using WebFlux. SSE provides a more efficient way for servers to push updates to clients than traditional polling. The example uses Spring WebFlux's reactive capabilities to stream data, handling a high volume of concurrent connections. The tutorial walks through creating a simple application that streams fictional "Game of Thrones" character data, covering project setup, dependency management, and front-end JavaScript for handling the event stream. The application uses Lombok for code conciseness and Thymeleaf for templating.
