Tiny, but Useful Spring Boot-related Tool: YAML to Properties Converter

Leider ist der Eintrag nur auf English verfügbar.Amongst other options, Spring Boot allows application developers to work with both "traditional" Java-style flat application.properties and hierarchical application.yml (or application.yaml, for that matter) YAML configuration files for providing applications with externalised configuration.
