  1. First, add the dependency for Thymeleaf in the pom.xml file.
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf</artifactId>
</dependency>
  1. Ensure that the template path for Thymeleaf is configured in the application.properties file.
spring.thymeleaf.prefix=classpath:/templates/
spring.thymeleaf.suffix=.html
  1. Create a Controller class to handle page requests and return Thymeleaf templates.
@Controller
public class MyController {

    @RequestMapping("/myPage")
    public String myPage(Model model) {
        model.addAttribute("message", "Hello, Thymeleaf!");
        return "myPage";
    }
}
  1. Create a Thymeleaf template file (myPage.html) and use Thymeleaf syntax to render the page within the file.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns:th="http://www.thymeleaf.org">
<head>
    <title>My Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1 th:text="${message}"></h1>
</body>
</html>
  1. To start the Spring Boot application, go to http://localhost:8080/myPage to see the message “Hello, Thymeleaf!” displayed on the page.

By following the above steps, you can achieve the integration of Spring Boot with Thymeleaf.
