> Hey there,
> I'm in the process of piecing together a Camel application using learnings
> from your [Spring boot
> examples|https://github.com/apache/camel-spring-boot-examples]. I already
> have a demo application which simply leaves the CamelContext open via
> Thread.sleep, so my plan was to add the spring-boot dependencies and
> implement a proper Service. However, I'm currently unsure about the purpose
> of two dependencies: spring-boot vs. camel-spring-boot-starter.
> [The Camel
> documentation|https://camel.apache.org/camel-spring-boot/latest/spring-boot.html#SpringBoot-CamelSpringBootStarter]
> regarding spring-boot only ever mentions including the
> camel-spring-boot-starter dependency, however all of the linked examples rely
> on a root project which uses the spring-boot project as its parent.
> This leads me to the following questions, which I hope you can clarify for me:
> # What is the role of spring-boot vs. camel-spring-boot-starter?
> # If I want to set up a Maven project using these components would I use
> spring-boot as the parent and include camel-spring-boot-starter as a
> dependency? (as well as all the other camel dependencies I'd need to get the
> project running of course)
> # There often seem to be two versions of the "same" dependency: A default
> one and a "...-starter" one (e.g. camel-jackson and camel-jackson-starter).
> In a Camel-Spring-Boot application would I only ever use the '...-starter'
> variants, or do these serve a different purpose?
> I hope my questions are clear and you can clarify a few things for me. Thank
> you again for your help!
>
> Kind Regards
