Book Description
Apart from knowing how to write front-end and server-end code, a full-stack engineer has to tackle all the problems that are encountered in the application development lifecycle, starting from a simple idea to UI design, technical design, and all the way to implementing, testing, production deployment and monitoring. This book covers the full set of technologies that you need to know to become a full-stack web developer with Spring Boot for the backend and React for the frontend.

This comprehensive guide demonstrates how to build up a modern full stack app in practice. This book will teach you how to build REST API endpoints and work with the Data Access Layer of Spring using Hibernate as the ORM. As we move ahead, you will be introduced to the other components of Spring such as Spring Security that will teach you how to secure the backend and also how to test it. Then, we will move on to the frontend where you will be introduced to React- a modern javascript library for building fast and reliable user interfaces and its app development environment and components. We will also create a Docker container from our application. Finally, the book will lay out the best practices that underpin professional full-stack web development.

By the end of this book, you will master the process of full stack development by leveraging the power of Spring boot and React
