Say goodbye to scattered tutorials and endless fluff. This course gives you a clear, structured path with bite-sized videos that blend theory and hands-on practice.

About the Course

Spring Boot is one of the most in-demand frameworks for modern backend development—and this course takes you beyond the basics to help you build, secure, and deploy real-world applications with confidence.

This is Part 2 of the ultimate Spring Boot series. In Part 1, you mastered the fundamentals. In this part, we’ll put that knowledge into practice by building and deploying the backend for a real e-commerce application.

You’ll learn how to build clean and secure RESTful APIs, implement authentication and role-based access control, integrate with Stripe for payment processing, and deploy your application to the cloud.

This course goes beyond CRUD and boilerplate setups. You’ll learn how real production systems are built—with a strong focus on clean code, modular architecture, and real-world best practices.

Whether you’re preparing for a job, planning to build your own app, or just want to take your backend skills to the next level, this course is designed to get you there.

What You'll Learn

• Build RESTful APIs using Spring Boot
• Validate incoming requests and handle errors with custom logic
• Secure your APIs with Spring Security and JWT authentication
• Implement role-based access control for protected resources
• Structure your application using clean, maintainable architecture
• Build a shopping cart system with full checkout functionality
• Integrate Stripe Checkout to process real payments
• Configure environment-specific settings using Spring profiles
• Deploy your app and database to the cloud
• Apply industry best practices for writing clean, testable, and production-ready code

What You'll Build

You’ll build the backend for a full-featured e-commerce application—complete with authentication, role-based access, a shopping cart, checkout flow, payment processing with Stripe, and cloud deployment.

This isn’t a basic CRUD app—it’s a real-world project that mirrors what professional backend developers build in production.

Who Is This For?

• Developers who've learned the basics of Spring Boot and want to go deeper
• Those who are tired of toy examples and want to build real-world projects
• Aspiring backend developers preparing for a Spring Boot job or freelance work

Prerequisites

This is Part 2 of my Spring Boot: Mastering the Fundamentals course. Ideally, you should have completed Part 1 or already be familiar with key Spring Boot concepts like beans and dependency injection, entities, repositories, and Flyway migrations.

New to Spring Boot? Start with Part 1 and come back when you're ready to build real-world APIs.
