This commit extract spring-related links and recurring external links into asciidoctor attributes to be used by the Antora toolchain. It notably homogenizes links to: - IETF RFCs - Java Community Process JSRs - the Java API Documentation (on the Java 17 version) - Kotlin documentations (on the Kotlinlang.org version) - the Spring Boot reference guide (on the `html` version) This commit also reworks most link attributes to follow a Project-Category-Misc syntax. For example, `spring-boot-docs` rather than `docs-spring-boot`. Finally, it makes an effort to clean up remainders from the previous documentation toolchain, namely the `docs/asciidoc` folder and `modules/ROOT/pages/attributes.adoc` file.

{kotlin-site}[Kotlin] is a statically typed language that targets the JVM
|
|
(and other platforms) which allows writing concise and elegant code while providing
|
|
very good {kotlin-docs}/java-interop.html[interoperability]
|
|
with existing libraries written in Java.
|
|
|
|
The Spring Framework provides first-class support for Kotlin and lets developers write
|
|
Kotlin applications almost as if the Spring Framework was a native Kotlin framework.
|
|
Most of the code samples of the reference documentation are
|
|
provided in Kotlin in addition to Java.
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to build a Spring application with Kotlin is to leverage Spring Boot and
|
|
its{spring-boot-docs}/boot-features-kotlin.html[dedicated Kotlin support].
|
|
{spring-site-guides}/tutorials/spring-boot-kotlin/[This comprehensive tutorial]
|
|
will teach you how to build Spring Boot applications with Kotlin using https://start.spring.io/#!language=kotlin&type=gradle-project[start.spring.io].
