《史上最简单的Spring Cloud教程源码》
A Chinese-language tutorial repo covering Spring Cloud from Eureka/Ribbon/Feign/Hystrix/Zuul through Finchley, Greenwich, and a 2021 Spring Cloud 2020.x update with Nacos/Sentinel/Gateway. Each chapter is a standalone runnable multi-module Maven project. Aimed at Java developers learning microservices patterns, primarily Chinese-speaking audience.
The chapter-per-concept structure means you can clone and run a specific pattern (e.g. Hystrix Dashboard, Sleuth+Zipkin) without wading through a monolith example. Coverage is genuinely broad — service discovery, client-side load balancing, circuit breaking, distributed tracing, config server, API gateway, all with working code. The 2021 update added Nacos and Sentinel chapters, which is the direction the Spring Cloud ecosystem actually moved after Netflix OSS went into maintenance. Star count (~18k) is a reasonable signal that the examples actually worked for a lot of people.
Last push was April 2021 — over three years stale. Spring Boot 3.x and Spring Cloud 2022+ are not represented at all, and the Eureka/Ribbon/Hystrix/Zuul stack these tutorials lean on is either in maintenance mode or dead upstream. Anyone using this to learn in 2024 will build muscle memory for APIs they'll need to unlearn. The repo is essentially a blog companion — no tests, no CI, no explanation of why anything is configured the way it is, just enough to make the tutorial run. README is almost entirely links to a personal blog in Chinese, so non-Chinese readers get very little context from the repo itself.
