What is the difference between Spring Boot and Spring Framework?

Spring is the core ecosystem (DI, AOP, MVC). Spring Boot is an opinionated layer on top with auto-configuration, embedded servers, and starter dependencies for fast bootstrapping.

Example
// Spring Boot
@SpringBootApplication
public class App {
  public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(App.class, args); }
} // no XML config, embedded Tomcat included
