Description
Environment
- VS Code (latest)
- Spring boot dashboard: V0.14.0
Situation
- I have a multi folder workspace project.
- Every folder contains a maven project. Some of the spring boot based microservices, others just modules
- Some of these modules have an indirect dependency on Spring boot (e.g. spring-cloud-starter-openfeign)
Current behavior
- that module appears in the SPRING:APPS panel in VS Code
Desired behavior:
- that module is not recognized as runnable
- Option 1: instead of checking the classpath for spring boot jar files (which is currently the way discovery is done, as far as I understood), search for the
@SpringBootApplicationannotation in the project. - Option 2: introduce a setting that allows hiding projects from the panel
- Option 1: instead of checking the classpath for spring boot jar files (which is currently the way discovery is done, as far as I understood), search for the
- having option 1 and 2, would even be better.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue. Start by tracing the dashboard's project-discovery logic and compare annotation-based discovery with a project-hiding setting; done means indirect-dependency modules are excluded while runnable Spring Boot applications remain visible.
