You are unable to see option for creating spring boot project in Eclipse Luna or STS? – Xeshan J Apr 16 '19 at 04:55

Did you install anything in Eclipse or did you just install the separate stand-alone STS which doesn't add anything to Eclipse? Eclipse Luna is quite old and the current Spring Tools code probably won't run on it. – greg-449 Apr 16 '19 at 06:36

1Neither STS 3.9.8 nor Spring Tools 4 are compatible with Eclipse Luna (4.4). – Martin Lippert Apr 16 '19 at 08:29

@XeshanJ There are two ways to create spring boot application one by installing STS from eclipse market place. I installed STS as mentioned above but I am unable to create spring boot project(because I am unable to see spring starter project under new option in eclipse ). Meanwhile I am using second option, creat spring boot project from https://start.spring.io and import in eclipse as existing maven project. – Maverick Apr 16 '19 at 23:09

@MartinLippert I installed new version of eclipse than install STS from eclipse market place. Now I can see Springstarter project in eclipse under new project --> SpringBoot . – Maverick Jun 05 '19 at 06:58

Restart the eclipse IDE after the spring installation. If it is still not showing then go to file => new => other => expand spring boot in the wizard screen => able to see "spring starter project"

I just had the same problem while installing Spring Tools 3 (Standalone Edition) 3.9.13.RELEASE).
How I solved? By reinstalling it:
- Uninstall STS: Help> Eclipse Marketplace > Installed then on Spring Tools 3 (Standalone Edition) 3.9.13.RELEASE) click change then uninstall
- Then install again and don't forget to restart Eclipse once finished
I hope I have helped.
