In this course, you will learn how to create a Java Spring Boot project.

You are a Java Programmer who would like to use Spring Boot for Web Applications, with database integration using JPA. You need to know SQL, HTML, Java and JDBC before attending this course.

Spring Boot is a Java-based framework that simplifies the development of production-ready applications with preconfigured setups for dependency management, web servers, and more, enhancing productivity and ease of deployment.

Importantly, we will use JPA for database connectivity in the Java web applications.

Java Persistence API (JPA) is a specification in Java that defines how to manage relational data in applications using object-relational mapping (ORM). It allows developers to map Java objects to database tables and query data using an object-oriented approach, reducing the need for manual SQL. JPA is often used with frameworks like Hibernate to simplify database operations in Java applications.

We will integrate with HTML to design the front-end, incorporating Thymeleaf and Bootstrap. We will inject the result sets from SQL Queries to the HTML web pages.

Thymeleaf is a modern server-side Java template engine for web and standalone environments. It enables dynamic generation of HTML, XML, and other text-based content. Thymeleaf integrates seamlessly with Spring and is designed to work in both web development (for creating views) and in non-web environments. It offers natural templating, meaning the templates are usable in a browser without requiring a web server, making it developer-friendly and effective for building web applications.

Bootstrap is a popular open-source front-end framework used for designing responsive and mobile-first websites. It provides pre-designed templates, components (like buttons, forms, and navigation bars), and a grid system, enabling developers to create visually appealing and consistent layouts quickly. Bootstrap is built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and it simplifies the process of building websites that work well on various devices and screen sizes.

You will enjoy this course tremendously and will be able to create useful applications.
