Java Spring Boot for Beginners
Learn the fundamentals of building enterprise back-ends. The course has live classes every Thursday evening, and you get access to all the recordings.
Course Summary
Hi, I'm Juhan, a solution architect with 20 years of experience building Spring Boot and Spring Framework applications. I'm launching a 10-week Spring Boot training programme for beginners on 20th February.
We'll have live Thursday evening classes and build a new application each week to showcase a new aspect of Spring Boot. You'll get all the source code, and I encourage you to experiment with it between sessions.
You only need basic programming knowledge (if-else statements, loops, variables, functions) – you don't need to be a Java expert. In this course, I'll teach you how to serve web content, build forms, work with REST services, connect to databases, understand Spring Boot internals, secure your applications, and write automated tests.
We'll use IntelliJ IDEA and GitHub Copilot, and I'll ensure you understand all the code we generate. This comprehensive live training is a fraction of the usual cost. Spots are limited. Try the first two weeks for just €5! More videos explaining how it all works and each week's topic can be found below.
Course Curriculum
Juhan Aasaru
I'm a Software Architect with 20 years of experience in IT as a Software Developer, Solution Architect and a CTO. I have been creating Java applications on top of Spring Boot and Spring Framework for almost 20 years. I have created best-selling courses and have over 9500 happy students at Udemy. I'm focusing on creating live courses which are engaging and easy to follow. All my programming courses come with source code that the students can investigate and work on individually.
Although the course has already started, you don't have to worry; you will have time to catch up by watching the recordings of past classes.
