Creating a 1 page SpringBoot webapp

This should be straightforward (I hope) - prereqs:

• Java (I've got Java corretto 11 installed), included in classpath
• Gradle (binaries downloaded), included in classpath
• VSCode with extensions (...)

Getting the code:

Go to: https://start.spring.io/

• Gradle project
• SpringBoot 2.6.1
• Group: stuff.things
• Artifact: SpringBootSAML
• Jar
• Java 11
• Dependencies: Spring Web
• Generate
• unzip into directory
• Open that directory in VSCode

In VSCode:

• build and run in a terminal (gradle bootRun)
• Browse to http://localhost:8080 (should get an error page)
• add a file index.html in src/main/resources/static/
• stop and re-run gradle bootRun
• Browse to http://localhost:8080 (should get your index.html page)
