When I started software engineering, I always wanted to code without any configurations, version control or build server configurations.Later, I realized that coding is just one part of software engineering: architectural designs, design patterns and the ability to write reusable and looselycoupled software components are much more important parts of programming.
In this course we are going to talk about the basics of professional software engineering such as how to seperate the code into multiple modules or how to use a build framework to build the final application for us.
Before developing the final application from scratch - that wire all the included technologies together -we will consider these technologies on a one by one basis.
In the first section we are going to consider Maven, one of the most popular build frameworks out there. The second chapter is about Java Persistence API and database related problems. The third chapter will cover Spring as far as the XML based configuration is concerned, then we will talk about the new way: the so-called Spring Boot. Finally, we are going to implement an application in which we are going to use all the technologies we have discussed.
Section 1 - Installations
setting up the environment
installing Java, Eclipse, Maven and MySQL
Section 2 - Maven
Section 3 - Java Persistence API (JPA)
why to use databases?
JDBC and the old way
what is Java Persistence API (JPA)
object relation mapping with JPA
how to deal with inheritance with JPA
how to deal with composition with JPA
basic CRUD operations with EntityManager
using Hibernate
Section 4 - Spring Framework
Section 5 - Spring Boot
Section 6 - Vaadin
Section 7 - Wiring all Together (Application from Scratch)
creating a larger application from scratch (student management software)
creating UI components with Vaadin
creating the database structure etc.
deploying and running the application on a server
Section 8 - Spring Security
Thanks for joining the course, let's get started!
