Front end development these days is dominated by large JavaScript client side frameworks.

I am happy to announce the availability of Spring HATEOAS 2.1.4, 2.2.1 and 2.3 M1. The releases primarily contain bug fixes and dependency upgrades.

For a full list of changes, refer to the individual change logs of 2.1.4, 2.2.1 and 2.3 M1…
