Part 2: Creating an Application with Spring Boot

Spring Boot makes it possible to get to the heart of the coding features your users need and not waste time on coding up infrastructure. Instead, you will learn how to serve web templates and JSON APIs. You will then see how to link your web layer to a rich set of database operations. You will also learn how to secure the whole thing so only the right users can access its various features, and finally, how to apply various testing tactics that will evoke confidence in both your team and your consumers.
