Spring Boot 3: Learn Spring 6, Spring Core, Spring REST, Spring MVC, Spring Security, Thymeleaf, JPA, Hibernate, MySQL

Introduction

Welcome to my repository for the Spring Boot 3 and Spring 6 course! This course is a comprehensive guide for mastering enterprise application development with Spring Boot 3, Spring 6, Hibernate, and related technologies. As a student, I am documenting my journey of learning the latest Spring framework concepts and applying them to real-world projects.

About the Course

This course focuses on teaching Spring Boot 3 and Spring 6 with a hands-on approach. Every topic is reinforced with real-time projects to ensure a practical understanding of key concepts.

By following this course, I aim to:

  1. Build real-world applications from scratch.
  2. Gain proficiency in using Spring Boot for REST APIs, Spring MVC, Thymeleaf, and Hibernate.
  3. Understand Spring Security for secure applications.
  4. Implement advanced features such as AOP, custom validation, and database integrations.

Key Concepts Covered

Spring Boot 3

  • Core functionality and annotations.
  • Java-based configuration (no XML).
  • REST API and MVC development.
  • Hibernate/JPA integration for CRUD operations.
  • Advanced features like Spring Boot Actuator and Dev Tools.
  • Maven for project configuration and dependency management.

Spring Framework 6

  • Dependency Injection (DI) and Inversion of Control (IoC).
  • Spring Beans, Component scanning, and Autowiring.
  • Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) for cleaner code.

Hibernate/JPA

  • Object-to-Relational Mapping (ORM).
  • CRUD operations and advanced mappings: One-to-One, One-to-Many, Many-to-Many.

Spring Security

  • Role-based authentication and authorization.
  • Secure login/logout functionality.
  • Password encryption using bcrypt.

Spring MVC and Thymeleaf

  • MVC architecture and dynamic HTML content.
  • Form validation and error handling.
  • Full database CRUD integration with Thymeleaf templates.

Advanced Topics

  • Spring Data JPA and Spring Data REST.
  • Automatic REST endpoint generation.
  • Pagination and HATEOAS-compliant responses.
  • AOP concepts like logging, pointcut expressions, and advice types.

Real-Time Projects

  1. Spring Boot REST API

    • Full CRUD functionality with Hibernate/JPA.
    • REST API secured with password encryption.

  2. Spring Boot MVC with Thymeleaf

    • Complete CRUD application integrated with MySQL.
    • Bootstrap-styled responsive UI.

  3. Spring Data REST

    • Auto-generated endpoints for repositories.
    • Advanced features like sorting, pagination, and HATEOAS.

  4. Spring Security Implementation

    • Authentication and role-based access control.
    • Secure storage of encrypted passwords in MySQL.

Course Goals and Benefits

As a student, this course helps me:

  1. Understand the fundamentals and advanced features of Spring Boot 3 and Spring 6.
  2. Apply best practices for building enterprise applications.
  3. Enhance my coding skills by following hands-on, step-by-step project implementations.
  4. Prepare for job roles in enterprise Java development by acquiring in-demand skills.

Tools and Technologies
