• API Design with OpenAPI: Master the art of defining APIs using the OpenAPI specification, aided by powerful tools like Redocly.

• CI/CD Pipelines for APIs: Establish continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) pipelines for your OpenAPI specifications and Redoc API documentation using Redocly.

• Domain-Driven Design in API Implementation: Apply domain-driven design principles to ensure your API design is both intuitive and effective.

• Code Generation with Maven & OpenAPI Code Generator: Discover how to generate code from OpenAPI specifications efficiently using Maven, streamlining your development process.

• Spring Boot & SpringMVC for API Endpoints: Develop API endpoints using the latest versions of Spring Boot and SpringMVC, ensuring your APIs are robust and scalable.

• Testing with Spring MockMVC & Validation: Test your APIs thoroughly using Spring MockMVC, and enforce data validation against your OpenAPI specification.

• CRUD Operations: Learn how to implement create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations for your APIs.

• Object-Relational Mapping with JPA & Hibernate: Understand how to map your objects to a relational database using JPA and Hibernate effectively.

• Efficient Object Mapping with MapStruct: Utilize MapStruct to simplify the mapping between different objects, reducing boilerplate code and enhancing maintainability.

• Data Validation & Constraints: Enforce data validation through JPA and Java Bean Validation, ensuring your data adheres to the required standards before processing.

• Problem Handling with Libraries like Zalando Problem: Handle standardized problems and errors gracefully using libraries designed for this purpose.

• Integration Testing with Spring Boot API Clients: Generate Spring Boot API clients and use them in your integration tests, ensuring your APIs work as expected within different contexts.

Real-World Application:
