Following the code via IDE is indeed easy in javaland - but if you didn't have a breadcrumb yet... Spring boot you didn't architect yourself is indeed annoying to navigate.
Everything can be an entry point and it's often non-obvious how things are structured.
More opinionated frameworks which enforce routes and consumers to be centrally managed are generally easier to figure out from the filesystem.
But if you've got an IDE like intellij you get the entry point tool which lists all endpoints. Consumers are more annoying...
