Hey there, welcome back friends. In our last video, we have checked this application dot properties file. This file is very important. This file is useful for overriding the default values of our Spring Boot application. Now there are like default values which Spring Boot application uses. Now whenever we would like to override the default values, this application dot property file as important.
Apart from that, we can also view these two folders. These are, again default locations. And as the name suggests, inside the template folder, we can keep the template related stuff whereas the static folder is there in order to keep the static files like CSS files, CSS files, things like that. All right. Now in this course we won't worry about web module we will focus related to the RESTful API which we will build in a forthcoming videos. But as of now, let us try to understand the application with property file real quick.
Now friends, if you Google for, for example, application or properties a Spring Boot and then you will definitely get like multiple search result and the first search result as a from spring.io. And if I open this in a new tab, then this will show up the common spring property and the list is really long. And you can definitely override the values this documentation is important. So whenever you would like to override some default values, you can specify the specific updated value inside your application or property file. Now the name of the exit property can be found inside this particular document. This document is really important.
The name of the properties again very important. It is case sensitive, and the properties must be accurate in order to override the default values. Now for example, if I search for view file, then definitely we would be able to see these two properties, spring dot MVC dot view dot prefix and a spring dot MVC dot view dot suffix. These are the two values which we have override. All right, so check out this documentation if there is a requirement of overriding the default values. All right, so this was a quick and important information related to application dot properties file.
And that's it for today. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. Thanks for watching. Have a nice day and take care
