Spring is the most popular framework for web development and, every year, more and more developers are getting involved in Spring development. Spring Framework makes it possible to develop applications for the web, especially RESTful and other types of services. So far, all development has been undertaken in Java. Recently, Kotlin has become very popular! Due to this, and the huge growth of the Kotlin community, we decided to introduce you to Spring development by using Kotlin as the primary development programming language.
With Kotlin, you can do everything you could do with Java, but with more joy and fun! We will show you how to play with Spring and Kotlin and how to create amazing things! Take your seat and get ready for an amazing journey!

Overview of this book
Kotlin is being used widely by developers because of its light weight, built-in null safety, and functional and reactive programming aspects. Kotlin shares the same pragmatic, innovative and opinionated mindset as Spring, so they work well together. Spring when combined with Kotlin helps you to reach a new level of productivity. This combination has helped developers to create Functional Applications using both the tools together. This book will teach you how to take advantage of these developments and build robust, scalable and reactive applications with ease.
In this book, you will begin with an introduction to Spring and its setup with Kotlin. You will then dive into assessing the design considerations of your application. Then you will learn to use Spring (with Spring Boot) along with Kotlin to build a robust backend in a microservice architecture with a REST based collaboration, and leverage Project Reactor in your application. You’ll then learn how to integrate Spring Data and Spring Cloud to manage configurations for database interaction and cloud deployment. You’ll also learn to use Spring Security to beef up security of your application before testing it with the JUnit framework and then deploying it on a cloud platform like AWS.
