Springboot Real Time REST Application from Scratch

🌟 Springboot Real Time REST Application from Scratch 🌟

🚀 Course Overview: In this comprehensive course, you will dive into the world of building REAL TIME REST APIs using Spring Boot. We'll follow a real-time industry-standard project development approach, ensuring that by the end of this journey, you'll have a fully functional application ready to face the production environment.

📚 What is Spring Boot? Spring Boot 🚀 is an open source, microservice-based Java web framework that simplifies the process of creating production-ready applications with minimal configuration. It is designed for fast and small-scale deployment, which means your application can scale from a single developer's machine to a large distributed system.

📑 Spring Boot JPA: JPA (Java Persistence API) 💾 is a Java specification that lets you interact with databases in a more straightforward and consistent manner. It defines an API for accessing, persisting, and managing data between Java objects/classes and relational databases.

🔍 H2 Database: H2 is an embedded and in-memory relational database management system written in Java. It's lightweight, easy to use, and perfect for development purposes because it stores data entirely in memory; however, data is lost when the program terminates.

✨ Lombok: Project Lombok 🛠️ is a Java library that reduces boilerplate code by offering annotations that replace common programming patterns such as getters, setters, and constructors. It enhances both performance and development experience.

✅ Course Highlights:

• SpringBoot Project Creation: Learn how to kickstart your Spring Boot project using Intellij IDEA and the Spring Initializer.
• Project Dependencies: Understand how to manage your application's dependencies effectively.
• JPA Entities: Get hands-on experience with creating entities and understanding their relationships.
• RESTful API Development: Write robust APIs, including handling exceptions across the entire application.
• Data Transfer Objects (DTOs): Learn how to use DTOs for cleaner data transfer.
• Lombok Annotations: Master Lombok annotations to minimize verbose Java code.
• Swagger UI: Document your APIs with Swagger, making it easier for anyone to understand the endpoints.
• Database Operations with JPA: Perform operations using Data JPA in a Spring Boot application.
• Database Connections: Connect your application to both MySQL and H2 databases.
• REST Endpoints Creation: Build the REST endpoints that form the core of your application.
• CRUD Operations: Learn to create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations in a RESTful manner.
• Content Filtering: Utilize Jackson for filtering content based on user needs.
• Asynchronous Methods: Write asynchronous methods to handle tasks without blocking the execution thread.
• Schedulers with CRON: Implement schedulers to perform time-based operations using CRON expressions.
• Third-Party API Integration: Call external REST APIs within your Spring Boot application.
• Code Refactoring: Learn best practices for refactoring code to improve its structure, readability, and efficiency.
• Email Functionality: Send emails from within your Spring Boot application.

🛠️ Technologies & Tools:

• Java 8+
• Spring Boot
• Spring Data JPA
