Package org.springframework.web.reactive

@NullMarked package org.springframework.web.reactive

Top-level package for the spring-webflux module that contains DispatcherHandler, the main entry point for WebFlux server endpoint processing including key contracts used to map requests to handlers, invoke them, and process the result.

The module provides two programming models for reactive server endpoints. One based on annotated @Controller's and another based on functional routing and handling. The module also contains a functional, reactive WebClient as well as client and server, reactive WebSocket support.
