1. To add a custom banner in Spring Boot application, create a banner.txt file and put it into the resources folder.
2. Review the content of banner.txt, this ASCII Art is created by this “ASCII Art Java example“, and the ANSI colors are added manually.

Thanks dude
Someone put a “mkyong” logo on the ascii java text, did that require artistic protection? 😀
I tried but , ${Ansi.*ANY COLOR*} not working, there is only white texts shown on banner. Is there any dependency we need to add for ANSI ?
Try ${AnsiColor.*ANY COLOR*}
Thanks!
