Spring Boot Foundations

Packt introduces Spring Boot through a short-step foundation followed by a web-application section. The provider estimates about nine hours and recommends Java knowledge. This makes it a practical bridge from language study to the conventions of a Java web framework.

What you will learn

• Set up a Spring Boot application.
• Follow the framework’s initial configuration workflow.
• Develop a first web application using the course’s Java examples.

Who this suits

Java learners and developers preparing to work on web applications with Spring Boot.

Put it into practice

Create a small application with one page and one request handler. Document how it starts and test the response when a required input is missing.
