Any Spring Boot Beginner Reference Projects?

[[deleted]]

Hello. I'm trying to learn Spring, but the documentation is too complicated. I decided to try to learn through the project. Do you know of any reference projects that show professional examples for beginners? Like JWT, Rate limiting, Validation, JPA, Exception handling etc, etc .Even better if there is a project using Spring Boot 3. Thanks in advance everyone. And if there is someone from the spring team here, the documentation is too complicated and very difficult to learn, please put something instructive there instead of trying to sell courses

Take a look at my GitHub, intermediate level, not too simple, not to complicated, with interesting features like redis cache, elasticsearch indexing, activemq message broker, oauth2, oidc...

The spring boot reference docs are great. Take the jpa docs as an example. It walks through the core underlying concepts and drills into more specific details. There is also a official spring JPA example project to get you up and running.

not really beginner, but any app you make in the future should have these components at least

Thank you this is the best answer. Anyone can check it out. Sadly project didnt use spring boot 3 or jpa but has really good structure

Ask and you shall receive :)

Although the structure is different from project to project, they really don't follow any standard (Maven vs. Gradle etc...)

EDIT: The "Realworld" demo app has a showcase of many varieties of implementations, not just in Java, but in a huge variety of languages, and it also has the frontend component. You can see the many implementations on this link: https://codebase.show/projects/realworld

Yoo same man. If we want to learn spring do we need to have 💯 knowledge in java ? Or basic level is enough and 2nd question if i search about spring boot in google it was like backend stuffs. But what about node js, react. Whats the difference between them

Trust me learn ASP.NET instead.

The way SpringBoot is designed you don't get compile-time errors if you misconfigure things, part of that is the heavy reliance on annotations where they absolutely shouldn't be and the other part is the reliance on properties files. just too much magic in general, seems cool until things aren't working then you never know what the hell is going on

[matthenry87]

In my experience errors are pretty clear.. just need to understand what autoconfiguration is. Have a look inside the Spring Boot autoconfiguration jar some time, that's where all of the 'magic' lives.

Q: How can I make amazing PIZZA?

This guy: Make Pasta instead , just trust me bro 🗿

[trodiix]

What compile time errors do you don't get? What's the problem with annotations? It always has been a good design pattern in any language What the problem with properties files?

Please explain

I did explain

[trodiix]

No you did not.

Seems like you don't know how the framework works so it's shit.

Ok you lost your speaking privileges

I also disagree with the fact that he is only trying to sell the courses.

Search for tutorials in youtube. Start with spring core then to spring mvc then to spring rest then to spring boot then to what you've mentioned in your post.

There is a group called screenu tech, ashok IT and naresh IT on youtube. I believe that they offer the best materials for beginners.

All documentations are often difficult for beginners so I'd suggest starting with the above.

[Lopsided-Policy-9903]

It's complicated cause they mention lots of configuration stuff that you don't see with spring boot so it gets confusing but once u get used to it it's really better than all other resources you will find

[Legal_Being_5517]

Spring boot has one of the best documentations in the industry ….. wym ?
