Introducing Project pro-spring-15

Project pro-spring-15 is a three-level Gradle project. pro-spring-15 ¹ is the root project and is the parent of the projects named chapter02 through chapter18 . Each of these chapter** projects is also a parent project for the module projects nested under it. The project was designed in this way to help you get oriented with the code and easily match each chapter to the source code associated with it.
