Building a reactive REST API
Yes, now we are starting to write our first code in the reactive world with Spring Boot 3.0. We will develop a REST API. As we all know, REST is the most used transfer protocol in applications. By this protocol, we can develop platform and language-independent applications. Because we can use REST in Java, Python, C#, and more, thanks to this protocol, each application can interact with each other hassle free. That’s why I have chosen REST API development in this sample.
Firstly, we will initiate our Spring Boot 3.0 project. We will introduce each component step by step and we will understand why we are using them. So, let’s roll up our sleeves and begin this journey into the reactive world.
Setting up the development environment
This is the first step – we need to be sure we have everything ready to use on our local machine. We have already mentioned the fundamental steps in the Technical requirements section. Here, we will...
