Spring Boot: Mastering REST API Development

Spring Boot is one of the most in-demand frameworks for modern backend development. This course will take you beyond the basics and help you confidently develop, secure, and deploy real-world applications.

This is the second part of an extensive course on Spring Boot. In the first part, you mastered the basics, and now it's time to apply your knowledge in practice by creating and deploying a backend for a full-fledged e-commerce application.

You will learn how to create clean and secure REST APIs, implement authentication and role-based access control, integrate with Stripe for payment processing, and deploy the application in the cloud.

This course goes beyond the standard CRUD. We will focus on clean code, modular architecture, and best practices applied in real-world projects.

Those preparing for interviews, planning to create their own application, or wanting to elevate their backend development skills to a professional level.

You will learn how to:

• Develop REST API using Spring Boot

• Secure the API with Spring Security and JWT
• Implement role-based access control
• Structure the application according to clean architecture principles
• Create a shopping cart system and a full checkout process
