• The need to manually update dependencies

• The requirement to restart the server for code changes to take effect

• The challenge of integrating with other frameworks

How do Spring Boot Dev Tools help developers?

• By offering cloud deployment options

• By reducing the size of the application

• By providing a graphical user interface for server management

• By automatically updating the server with code changes

What is the effect of adding the Spring Boot Dev Tools dependency?

• It requires additional configuration for each code change

• It increases the server startup time
