Hands-On Full Stack Development with Spring Boot 2 and React

Setting Up the Environment and Tools - Backend

In this chapter, we will set up the environment and tools needed for backend programming with Spring Boot. Spring Boot is a modern Java-based backend framework that makes development faster than traditional Java-based frameworks. With Spring Boot, you can make a standalone web application that has an embedded application server.

In this chapter, we will look into the following topics:

  • Building an environment for Spring Boot development
  • The basics of the Eclipse IDE and Maven
  • Creating and running Spring Boot projects
  • Problem solving when running Spring Boot applications

Technical requirements

Setting up the environment and tools

There are a lot of different integrated development environment (IDE) tools that you can use to develop Spring Boot applications. In this book, we are using Eclipse, which is an open source IDE for multiple programming languages. We will create our first Spring Boot project by using the Spring Initializr project starter page. The project is then imported into Eclipse and executed. Reading the console log is a crucial skill when developing Spring Boot applications.

Installing Eclipse

Eclipse is an open source programming IDE developed by the Eclipse Foundation. An installation package can be downloaded from https://www.eclipse.org/downloads. Eclipse is available for Windows, Linux, and macOS...

Summary

In this chapter, we installed the tools that are needed for backend development with Spring Boot. For Java development, we used the Eclipse IDE, which is a widely used programming IDE. We created a new Spring Boot project by using the Spring Initializr page. After creating the project, it was imported to Eclipse and, finally, executed. We also covered how to solve common problems with Spring Boot and how to find important error and log messages. Finally, we installed a MariaDB database, which we are going to use in the following chapters.

In the next chapter, we will understand what dependency injection is and how it can be used with the Spring Boot framework.

Key benefits

  • Unleash the power of React Hooks to build interactive and complex user interfaces
  • Build scalable full stack applications designed to meet demands of modern users
  • Understand how the Axios library simplifies CRUD operations

Description

React Hooks have changed the way React components are coded. They enable you to write components in a more intuitive way without using classes, which makes your code easier to read and maintain. Building on from the previous edition, this book is updated with React Hooks and the latest changes introduced in create-react-app and Spring Boot 2.1. This book starts with a brief introduction to Spring Boot. You’ll understand how to use dependency injection and work with the data access layer of Spring using Hibernate as the ORM tool. You’ll then learn how to build your own RESTful API endpoints for web applications. As you advance, the book introduces you to other Spring components, such as Spring Security to help you secure the backend. Moving on, you’ll explore React and its app development environment and components for building your frontend. Finally, you’ll create a Docker container for your application by implementing the best practices that underpin professional full stack web development. By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped with all the knowledge you need to build modern full stack applications with Spring Boot for the backend and React for the frontend.

Who is this book for?

If you are a Java developer familiar with Spring, but are new to building full stack applications, this is the book for you.

What you will learn

  • Create a RESTful web service with Spring Boot
  • Grasp the fundamentals of dependency injection and how to use it for backend development
  • Discover techniques for securing the backend using Spring Security
  • Understand how to use React for frontend programming
  • Benefit from the Heroku cloud server by deploying your application to it
  • Delve into the techniques for creating unit tests using JUnit
  • Explore the Material UI component library to make more user-friendly user interfaces

This is a React book, mainly frontend. Very disappointed. There are thousands of books covering React and they do a great job already. If you want to know Spring and how to use it with React in a professional way stay away from this book.

I'm new to Spring, so I was looking for a good introduction. This book doesn't go very deep into the details, but for me it was just the practical intro I hoped to find. Packt is always the first address for me when I need a practical computer book!

Worst programming book I have bought. The code just does not work. Also very hard to read on Kindle.

I have been a Java developer for years and recently begun learning React. I purchased this book because it mostly was related to what I do at my day job. This book does not go deep into details on things like Java 8 functional programming or deep into React Hooks but covers a ton of useful information. Something I like in addition to the use of Spring Boot 2 and React is that this book also covers some information on testing and security. I feel like many developers focus so much on simply coding but do not learn much security and testing. This book gives you the tools the write full stack applications using test driven development and including security. Again, the book does not go deep into any given details to make someone who finishes it feel like an SME but it is enough to get their feet wet in a breadth of material.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
