Java Development with Spring

The course Java Development with Spring covers the concepts, components and architecture of the Spring Framework.

Spring Intro

The course Java Development with Spring starts with an overview of the different parts of Spring and the types of applications in which Spring can be used.

Spring Boot

Next the essentials of Spring Boot, which greatly simplifies the configuration of Spring applications, are discussed. The main Spring Boot annotations, the opiniated defaults and the built-in web servers are treated.

Dependency Injection

Attention is paid to the concept of Dependency Injection or Inversion of Control which plays a central role in the framework. Different variants of dependency injection such as setter injection and constructor injection are discussed.

Aspect Oriented Programming

The other pillar of the framework, Aspect Orientation, is also covered in detail. The concepts of Aspect Orientation such as Aspects, Joinpoints, Pointcuts, Advice and Weaving are explained.

Data Access

Next the different options for storing the data of Spring Java applications in databases are discussed. Attention is paid to the use of JDBC with a JdbcTemplate, as well as the use of Object Relational Mapping frameworks such as Hibernate with a HibernateTemplate or JPA via annotations. Spring Transactions are also treated in this context.

Spring MVC

Web Applications with the Spring MVC Framework are part of the program of the course Java Development with Spring as well as the creation and use of Spring Rest Web Services. The role of controllers, views, page parameters and command objects is explained.

Spring Security

Finally attention is paid to Spring and Security and the simplified setup of a Spring configuration with Spring Boot is treated. The modules Spring with JMS and Spring with JMX are optional.
