I teach a course in java and springboot for beginners. I would like to walk my students through the code of a real world java or springboot application. Can anyone recommend a good example?

I'd suggest studying the code of the Spring Pet Clinic webapp. It will teach you how to engineer a simple three tier webapp.

However this is heavily geared towards the Spring framework and not core Java. But this project showcases best practices for writing code and structuring a project.
