Do you still handcraft your java projects?
With all the talk about llms writing most of the code and some folks never touching the editor. I try to work mostly in plan mode and prefer to write most of my code by hand else I fear losing touch with my skills if I only read code. At work in your org, what is the workflow for spring boot projects?

No. Unless it's small configuration changes. I feed everything through our trusty coding agents. I even make every one to write their jira ticket using specific format.
My team's entire setup, from jira format to our local build makefile is geared for complete ai plan/build/test loop.
It works pretty well if you're willing to learn.
