Overview of this book

Spring Boot is a lightweight framework that provides a set of tools to create production-grade applications and services. Spring Boot 2.0 Projects is a comprehensive project-based guide for those who are new to Spring, that will get you up to speed with building real-world projects. Complete with clear step-by-step instructions, these easy-to-follow tutorials demonstrate best practices and key insights into building efficient applications with Spring Boot. The book starts off by teaching you how to develop a web application using Spring Boot, followed by giving you an understanding of creating a Spring Boot-based simple blog management system that uses Elasticsearch as the data store. Next, you’ll build a RESTful web services application using Kotlin and the Spring WebFlux framework - a new framework that enables you to create reactive applications in a functional way. Toward the last few chapters, you will build a taxi-hailing API with reactive microservices using Spring Boot, in addition to developing a Twitter clone with the help of a Spring Boot backend. To build on your knowledge further, you’ll also learn how to construct an asynchronous email formatter. By the end of this book, you’ll have a firm foundation in Spring programming and understand how to build powerful, engaging applications in Java using the Spring Boot framework.

Summary

Congratulations on completing this chapter, where the skills and knowledge required to build a Twitter clone, nicknamed Tweety, were discussed in detail. This chapter started off by explaining what an Angular frontend application is and how the MVVM pattern can benefit both in terms of development and maintenance. We talked about the requirements for the backend and frontend to be developed and used a Unified Modeling Language (UML) use case diagram to explain the requirements visually.

This chapter also talked about how to understand the domain model of an application, based on requirements (Tweety), and how to use Spring Data JPA to convert those domain models into entities in an H2 database. A UML class diagram was used to explain the domain model in detail.

Furthermore, this chapter explained how to write data repositories for documents using the Spring Data JPA with...
