## Description

This project is a Spring Boot API starter kit and RESTful project skeleton designed for building backend services. It provides a foundational codebase that implements a layered service architecture and standardized directory structures to organize controllers, services, and data mappers.

The project features a MyBatis CRUD boilerplate generator that automates the creation of models and controllers from database tables using customizable templates. It includes a security framework for protecting endpoints via interface signature authentication to verify user identity and request authorization.

The system ensures consistency across network requests through unified result wrapping, standardized API response formatting, and a centralized global exception handler for interception-based error management. It further simplifies data persistence through generic CRUD operations and database connection pooling.
