Key benefits

  • Full-stack API development with Spring Boot, SOAP, REST, JPA, and security
  • Real-world projects with step-by-step guidance and production-ready practices
  • Modern Java tools integration including Maven, Gradle, Swagger, and Docker

Description

Explore the world of Java web services as you learn to build, deploy, and secure APIs using Spring Boot. Starting with core concepts and the differences between SOAP and REST, you’ll move through hands-on tutorials covering Spring Framework and Spring Boot, gradually building your skills with real coding exercises and scalable apps. Advance by mastering SOAP services with a contract-first approach, working with WSDL, JAXB, and endpoint setup. Simultaneously, develop REST APIs for a social media-style app, adding features like CRUD, validation, error handling, content negotiation, and versioning. You'll also work with HATEOAS, Swagger, Spring Security, and Actuator for real-world readiness. Finally, integrate databases with JPA, mapping entities and relationships, and exploring Spring Data JPA and Hibernate. You'll also gain experience with Maven, Gradle, REST best practices, and functional programming in Java. Every step is designed to build practical skills and prepare you for professional backend development.
