404 ao tentar usar thymeleaf | Spring Boot: Agilidade no desenvolvimento java com Spring

O instrutor ilustra o funcionamento do SpringFramework com @RequestBody, em seguida faz com que a rota retorne um template.

Ele remove a anotação @RequestBody, retorna o nome do template e cria o template com o nome index.html na pasta templates.

Não funcionou, então ele instalou o thymeleaf, daí funcionou. No meu caso mesmo após instalar o thymeleaf, ainda não funciona.

@Controller

    @RequestMapping("/")
