Worked on the spring-projects/spring-boot repository to implement a configuration property that controls whether a response body is returned after deleting an entity in Spring Data REST. This feature, developed using Java and the Spring Framework, introduced the spring.data.rest.return-body-on-delete setting, which is wired to RepositoryRestConfiguration.setReturnBodyOnDelete() for runtime consistency. The change brought delete operations in line with other CRUD actions, improving API predictability and reducing unnecessary payloads. The work addressed issue gh-48872 and aligned with Spring Data REST 4.1 standards, demonstrating a focused approach to backend development and configuration management within a widely used enterprise framework.
