Overview
For many developers, Spring is the go-to framework for quickly and easily creating web-based enterprise applications. With its comprehensive ecosystem that includes an extensive array of tools and testing capabilities, Spring relieves developers of much of the drudge work when building out web-based, RESTful applications. Spring Boot helps out even further by enabling autoconfiguration of many of the tedious chores that you need to do when starting a new project.
In this updated learning path, designed for basic- to intermediate-level web application developers, you’ll examine the Spring approach to development as you explore the fundamentals that drive this powerful application framework. You’ll see how to build applications from scratch and then test and manage those applications. You’ll also look at Spring’s Model-View-Controller (MVC) framework as well as ways to save your data using the JdbcTemplate, JPA support, and Spring Data framework. When you’ve completed this learning path, you’ll be well on your way to being able to rapidly create web-based, RESTful services and applications.
What you’ll learn and how you can apply it
- Write basic server-side applications, including web apps and restful web services.
- Test all aspects of a Spring application, using a combination of unit, integration, and full functional tests.
- Select persistence mechanisms for relational database data and implement them using Spring's dedicated classes or Spring Data JPA.
- Build a native image for restful web services using the GraalVM native image compiler.
This course is for you because…
- You're a developer who wants to write web apps or REST-based services.
- You have a Java background (or other related language) and want to work with Spring.
- You're interested in the Spring ecosystem of projects.
Materials or downloads needed in advance:
A pair of GitHub repositories containing the final form of the developed applications are available here and here, but the applications will be built from the ground up.
Prerequisites:
- Experience using Java
- Experience working in programming web applications and/or restful web services (helpful but not required)
