Spring Boot 3 Thymeleaf REAL-TIME Web Application - Blog App

In this course, you will learn how to build a real-time complete blog application step by step using Spring Boot 3, Spring MVC, Thymeleaf, Spring Security 6, Spring Data JPA, and MySQL database.

In this course, we will be using Spring Boot 3, Spring Framework 6, Spring Security 6 (no deprecated APIs/classes), and Thymeleaf 3 - The latest versions as of now.

I have added a Thymeleaf crash course with 20+ lectures so if you are new to Thymeleaf then first watch the Thymeleaf crash course and then build a Blog application.

Note: This is the project development course so you need to have a basic understanding of Spring Boot, Spring Security, Spring Data JPA, and MySQL database

What is Spring Boot?

Spring Boot is basically an extension of the Spring framework which eliminated the boilerplate configurations required for setting up a Spring application.

Spring Boot is an opinionated framework that helps developers build Spring-based applications quickly and easily. The main goal of Spring Boot is to quickly create Spring-based applications without requiring developers to write the same boilerplate configuration again and again.

What is Thymeleaf?

Thymeleaf is a modern server-side Java template engine for both web and standalone environments, capable of processing HTML, XML, JavaScript, CSS, and even plain text.

The main goal of Thymeleaf is to provide an elegant and highly-maintainable way of creating templates.

It's commonly used to generate HTML views for web applications.

Thymeleaf is a very popular choice for building UI so we will be using Thymeleaf to build the view layer in the Spring MVC web application (Blog App).

Sample amazing feedback from students on this course:

Dhirendra Singh:

"Ramesh is always a NICE teacher........"

Stefan Petkov:

"Very well structured course. Understandable and well explained the basic concepts in Spring Framework and Thymeleaf. Good job Ramesh!"

Tuan Anh Do:

"Great course, the instructor is also enthusiastic to answer, some practical problems have been solved in the lesson"

Adnan Alasow:

"The instructor effectively communicates in a clear and simplified manner that enables a beginner such as myself to comprehend the material."

Devin Berkani:

"Ramesh is simply the best instructor around when it comes to all things Java and Spring. The course was structured in such a way that I was able to complete a full-fledged CRUD application by the end of it and actually understand WHY it works as opposed to just mindlessly typing code alongside someone in a video (which was unfortunately my experience with many other Udemy courses before I found Ramesh). I feel more confident and comfortable with Spring Boot than I ever thought I could after such a short amount of time. One of the things that impressed me the most was how quick Ramesh was with his responses. Whenever I had a question, he was there to answer it in a timely manner. I felt like I was his only student, even though there were probably hundreds of others in the class. I am so grateful for Ramesh's expertise and can't wait to start his REST API course next! This course deserves more than a 5-star rating, but that's all I can give, so that's what it gets."

FRANCISCO ERICK CARMONA GARCIA:
