Let us begin with the creation of the Spring Web Project using the Maven plugin of our STS Eclipse 8.3. This web project will be implementing our first Spring 5.0 container using the XML-based technique. This is the most conventional but robust way of creating a Spring container.
The container is where the objects are created, managed, wired together with their dependencies, and monitored from their initialization up to their destruction. This recipe will mainly highlight how to create an XML-based Spring container.
