”’ Right now I’m trying to build with a main.java that just shows something.

package com.matt.handler.Main;

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

@RestController
public class Main {
  @GetMapping("/hola")
    public String test(){
      return("hola Mundo");
    }
}

Answer

If I understand properly, you are missing main class in spring boot:-

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class App {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
            SpringApplication.run(App.class);
        }
 }

You have just implemented @RestController, but to start spring boot application, you need to have main method which will kick start spring boot.

Once you have it, you can then run maven command as below:

mvn clean spring-boot:run
