Top 5 small java libraries for projects (functional, date, etc.)

For some time now most of my Java projects revolve around the Spring Boot Stack which contains pretty much everything you can need, however there's a list of small libraries and utilities that I love to use in my projects

Below is my top 5 small libraries I use in my projects

  • TotallyLazy : enhances the functional standard library with some syntaxic sugar
  • Lombok : because who wants to write setters/getters manually
  • JodaTime Yes, yes I know I should use now the new java API but I still like Joda best!
  • jOOλ : More functional sweetness
  • Apache Commons : Multi-purpose library

The above are my way-to-go small libraries for my projects, of course there are some specific libraries for a given case Jackson JSON or Caffeine Cache
