Simple REST method returning an object

In the previous method, we returned a string. Let's create a method that returns a proper JSON response. Take a look at the following method:

    @GetMapping("/welcome-with-object")    public WelcomeBean welcomeWithObject() {      return new WelcomeBean("Hello World");    }

This preceding method returns a simple WelcomeBean initialized with a message: "Hello World".
