Lombok – Reduce Boilerplate in Java Writing boilerplate code in Java — like getters, setters, constructors, and builders — can get repetitive. Project Lombok simplifies this with annotations that auto-generate code at compile-time, keeping your classes clean and focused. 🔧 Setup To use Lombok, add this dependency to your project: ➡️ Maven <dependency> <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId> <artifactId>lombok</artifactId> <version>1.18.30</version> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> ➡️ Gradle compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.30' annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.30' 📦 Example Without Lombok public class User { private String name; private int age; public User() {} public User(String name, int age) { this.name = name; this.age = age; } public String getName() { return name; } ...
