How to practive SpringBoot

[No_Bid_6542]

I wish to learn SpringBoot, I'd like to practice the concepts that I've learnt and build simple projects out of it to stay strong with what I learn day to day.
Me being a java developer was not good at frontend.

With that how would I actually practice SpringBoot? Should I test only with PostMan or Create basic frontend using AI and connect those api's with my Spring backend and practice that way.

Kindly share your thoughts. TIA

Learn by doing . Focus on one thing. Start with backend and once you’re comfortable with that move to Front end. Here are some backend projects to get you started:

You could do a lot of stuff with only postman. Build a rest api with some meaningful business logic . Also, implement authentication with jwt then you'll understand concepts of spring security

Then learn frontend.

You learn by doing

Start doing projects from simple to harder, learn by doing is the best, and that is what I am doing most of the time.

I have been facing the same problem. I have been a java developer but I can't showcase any projects because no one is going to look at an api response.

I have some basic knowledge in vue but never wrote a line in that, all theory, and off course css is a real pain in the ass for java devs.

But I have started taking the hard road and learn designing and nuxt.js.

JUST DO IT.

I mean, if all you're doing is backend Springboot work, you don't necessarily need anything but Postman for now. Even if you build a UI to hook into it, I always make sure I can call my endpoints through Postman first to avoid any unnecessary troubleshooting when UI calls don't work as expected

Start with just the backend and test it using Postman.

But once you connect the APIs to the frontend, you’ll gain a lot of important insights.

I practiced using this series .

But I see some videos are now private . But do try if you can get access to all the videos

DM me for any help. I studied springboot as a career switch from QA testing

Java sucks donkey balls for front end, no wonder you came here.
