Java, Spring, JPA, REST API, MySql, Postman : Advanced level

In this tutorial, we are going to develop the backend side of a beautiful web app called MyFlightApp.

We will use Java Spring Boot, Spring Data, Spring IoC, Spring Security, Hibernate JPA, MySQL, REST API, Maven, and Postman.

The Spring Framework is an open-source application framework that provides infrastructure support for developing Java applications.

Spring Boot makes it easy to create stand-alone, production-grade Spring-based Applications that you can "just run."

Spring Data is a high-level SpringSource project with the purpose of unifying and easing access to different kinds of persistence stores, including both relational database systems and NoSQL data stores.

Spring Security is a powerful and highly customizable authentication and access-control framework.

The Spring IoC Container is the core of the Spring Framework. It creates objects, configures and assembles their dependencies, and manages their entire life cycle. The Container uses Dependency Injection (DI) to manage the components that make up the application.

The Java Persistence API (JPA) is a Java specification used to persist data between Java objects and a relational database.

Postman is an application used for API testing. It is an HTTP client that tests HTTP requests, utilizing a graphical user interface through which we obtain different types of responses that need to be subsequently validated.

Maven is a powerful project management tool based on POM (project object model). It is used for project build, dependencies, and documentation.

REST is an acronym for REpresentational State Transfer and is an architectural style for distributed hypermedia systems.

We will start from an empty folder, and we will build our web application step by step.

In this course, you will learn everything you need to build professional web applications step by step.

You will learn a lot of basics and advanced features, and by the end of this course, you will therefore be an advanced backend developer.

We are not going to stay at the basic level; instead, we will dive into advanced features and try to apply them in this web application.

You will be able to delve deeper into more challenging projects and apply for backend developer jobs or become a backend developer as a freelancer, depending on your goal.

So, I would be very happy to welcome you to this course and can't wait to get started together with you.
