Where is the Spring jar file located? - spring

Question

I'm trying to install Spring Boot using Maven. I use IntelliJ Community Edition (that doesn't have a built-in support for Spring). Therefore, I entered here: http://start.spring.io/, and downloaded an initial Spring Boot project for Maven. The first thing I did is running "install" in order to install the dependencies.
When the installation completed, I looked at the Java file inside src/main/java folder:
package com.example;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
#SpringBootApplication
public class DemoApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);
}
}
I get errors: "Can't resolve symbol springframework/SpringApplication". I understand that these errors show, as my Spring jar file is not included in the classpath.
My question is where is this file located, so I can add it to the classpath?
My pom.xml file is:

I have only one jar file in the target directory:
$ ls target/*.jar
target/demo-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

I finally found it under:
