Research direction

Start with the Model Validation section of the curriculum and locate the referenced build.gradle file or dependency instructions. Confirm the spring-boot version guidance and document the spring-boot-starter-validation dependency; done means the material accurately explains the required package for newer Spring Boot versions.

Description

From a NWA student comment in the errata channel:
"13. Model Validation
According to Google, the newer versions of spring-boot do not include the required package for validation annotations.
Must add "implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-validation'" to the dependencies in the build.gradle file."
