Description

**** Come specialize in API development with the revolutionary Spring Boot framework that is a real fever today!

The course is still under development. The core of the course is now available, and new sections have already been recorded and will be edited and added by the end of March. *****

These new sessions will address the topics:

API's Versioning

Content Negotiation

HATEOAS

Swagger

CORS - Cross-origin Resource Sharing

Authentication with JWT and Spring Security

File Upload and Download

Docker

Deployment at Amazon AWS

Amazon AWS Continuous Integration with Travis CI

This course teaches the core fundamentals of APIs REST and RESTful Webservices both in theory (10%) and in practice (90%). This knowledge will be applied to the implementation of a RESTful API with SpringBoot 2.x and Java. We will start with a simple application that will gradually advance to more complex scenarios. We will cover HTTP notions, verbs/methods, parameter types, pagination, file upload and download, versioning, HATEOAS, Swagger, authentication, and security with JWT and Spring Security, etc.

We will add Docker support and deploy our API on an Amazon AWS EC2 instance manually. And to close the course with a golden key, we will implement a continuous integration pipeline involving Docker, Github, Travis CI, and an ECS Cluster on Amazon AWS. It will be amazing you simply commit your code and push to Github, Travis CI builds Docker Images and deploys it on Amazon "Automagically".

Finally, the main objective of the course is to serve as a starting point from which students can expand their knowledge of the subject and "walk with their legs."

Who this course is for:

Early career developers who need to learn how to develop a REST/RESFul API from scratch
Software developers and engineers
For back-end developers with knowledge of ASP NET, Rails, Django, Node, etc. and want to learn how to do what they know but with other technology
Front end developers who want to become full-stack
Anyone who has tried other REST/RESTful Webservices tutorials and found that they were very slow, outdated, and boring!
