Spring fundamentals

Spring is a layered Java application platform for building enterprise solutions. It includes flexible dependency injection with XML, annotation-based and Java configuration styles. Spring will enable you to focus on your business problem rather than the plumbing that connects components and systems and will make your code easier to test. Spring Boot will even simplify things further.

In this course we will mainly focus on the core of Spring (Boot) and the ingredients needed to build a full application (front to back) based on the framework.
