Overview

The default Spring Boot banner can be replaced by a custom one.

Replacing the default banner

First of all, let's generate a new and improved banner. I like this tool to generate an ASCII txt file from a given text.

Once this is done, the next step is very easy:

• Create a file named banner.txt in the src/main/resources directory.
• Paste the ASCII text in it.

Now, when you start the Spring Boot app, the new banner will show.
