Testing serialization - Spring boot vs Micronaut Framework

To build the guide locally:

./gradlew buildingARestApiSpringBootVsMicronautTestFirstBuild

I'm wondering why the expected JSON needs to be in a separate file? Is there some reason for this?

These guides are inspired by the tutorials in Build a Rest API with Spring Boot in Spring Academy. I want to compare best practices and recommendations in Spring tutorials to avoid my bias towards Micronaut Framework. They use a JSON file in those tutorials.

I see, thing is that academy thing is nicely structured in terms of having learning paths etc. whilst our guides infrastructure is not like that and quite messy and difficult to find guides. Shouldn't we think about how we improve the guides to split them between tutorials, guides and having learning path pages before venturing to make it even more complicated?

Yes, we can introduce learning paths and courses (similar to our categories). We should spend some time creating better landing pages.

However, those changes are independent of this PR. Can I merge this PR, or do you want to review it further?
