Simplify the management of user roles in Spring Boot
Spring Security allows us to use role-based control to restrict access to API resources. However, inserting role names as simple strings can quickly become cumbersome and increase development cost. Fortunately, we can enclose role details in an Enum and use custom annotations to simplify management of user roles in a Spring Boot application. While it still doesn’t provide type-safe roles, most IDEs will be able to support changes in the code and simplify maintenance.
