The Spring Framework Artifacts wiki page currently only provides examples of configuring the version for spring-context which can lead to confusion for some users who are unfamiliar with dependency management.

We should therefore clarify that the spring-context examples are meant to demonstrate how to configure the version for a single Spring Framework artifact.

We should also provide guidance for upgrading the Spring Framework version for Spring Boot users.

Improve Spring Framework Artifacts wiki page

Prior to this commit, the Spring Framework Artifacts wiki page only provided examples of configuring the version for spring-context which lead to confusion for users who are unfamiliar with dependency management.

This commit therefore revises the wiki page as follows.

  • Clarify that the spring-context examples are meant to demonstrate how to configure the version for a single Spring Framework artifact.

  • Split repository and dependency configuration examples.

  • Provide guidance for upgrading the Spring Framework version for Spring Boot users.
