A Spring MVC application, which can easily be deployed to Heroku.

This application was created following the Getting Started with Java on Heroku article - check it out.

• Integration with the Web Framework Spring MVC.
• Configurations done through Java config and annotations.
• Integration with Thymeleaf templates.

Besides, you can configure automatic deploys by using a Github repository branch. See the Github Integration article.
