MyBatis-Plus Quick Start: Environment Setup and Common Error Troubleshooting

MyBatis-Plus (MP) is an enhancement tool for MyBatis that simplifies development and improves efficiency.

    <artifactId>mybatis-plus-generator</artifactId>

</dependency>

1.1.2 Add MySQL connector dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>mysql</groupId>

1.1.3 Install Lombok plugin

Install the Lombok plugin in the IDE (Setting → Plugins → Lombok) to avoid writing getter and setter methods manually.
