A framework for building Java web applications based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern. It promotes flexible and decoupled code from the underlying view technologies.

Spring MVC is an action-based (as opposed to component-based) web framework built on top of the Spring IOC Container. MVC stands for Model View Controller, a long standing design pattern that layers an application separating presentation concerns from business logic see Portland Pattern Repository's MVC Entry

The latest stable version is 5.1.4 and was released in January 2019, and the current docs can be found in the MVC section of the Spring Reference.
