Leverage React to build slick, high-performance frontends

Get introduced to TypeScript, Vite, and React Query for React development

Description

If you’re an existing Java developer who wants to go full stack or pick up another frontend framework, this book is your concise introduction to React. In this three-part build-along, you’ll create a robust Spring Boot backend, a React frontend, and then deploy them together. This new edition is updated to Spring Boot 3 and includes expanded content on security and testing. For the first time ever, it also covers React development with the in-demand TypeScript. You’ll explore the elements that go into creating a REST API and testing, securing, and deploying your applications. You’ll learn about custom Hooks, third-party components, and MUI. By the end of this book, you'll be able to build a full stack application using the latest tools and modern best practices.

Who is this book for?

This book is for Java developers who have basic familiarity with Spring Boot but don’t know where to start when it comes to building full stack applications. Basic knowledge of JavaScript and HTML will help you to follow along. You'll also find this book useful if you're a frontend developer with knowledge of JavaScript basics and looking to learn full stack development, or a full stack developer experienced in other technology stacks looking to learn a new one.

"Full Stack Development with Spring Boot 3 and React" takes you on an exciting journey through building Backend and Front end of a Software System using Spring Boot and React. It gives you excellent guidance on using actual framework for development. It has a very simplistic writing format to give you context, detailed explanation, sample requirements to build the System, Code for the requirement and testing the same.Some of the topics areUnderstanding Dependency Injection: This is such a critical concept used both in Spring Boot and React.Access Database using JPA in Spring Boot utilizing ORM or plain SQL Query.Securing your Backend API Layer, Handling errors/exceptions, Adding CORS filter and why it’s needed. Role based security and using OAuth2.Documenting API’s and Setup Swagger UI to make each of the API’s independently testable.Testing your Spring Boot API’s - Good explanation of basic concepts and a pointer for Further reading to learn more about Spring Boot and Mockito for Testing.Starting React with ES6 development. Tools like NodeJS, VS Code and extensions, Debugging. Intro to using Material UI (MUI) library components.Consuming Backend API’s using Axios framework with Promises, Async/Await and handling Race conditionsTesting React Component and Pages - Although not very detailed but good introduction to using Jest framework, React Testing library, ViTestSecuring and handling JWT OAuth2 in ReactDeploying Frontend React Component using Netlify (Free Tier)Few things which I feel could’ve helped if they were there.Gradle is used for Spring Boot development but there is no Build Tools alternatives - Maven vs GradleNPM is used for React but there is no Build Tools alternatives - Yarn vs NPMReact Developer Tools — Details on how to debug issues when calling backend API’s would be of great help since most of the time this is what is needed during development and testing.Every chapter has more info for Further reading on a particular topic if you need to deep dive which is very helpful in my view. With these pointers you can get a wider and deeper understanding of the topic if needed.Great work by the author Juha Hinkula for writing such a comprehensive and valuable book for Spring and React Ecosystem. This book truly elevates your Full Stack Development knowledge! 🙌

I acquired some skills on Spring Boot 3 earlier and this time wanted to see how it can be done with React while doing Full Stack which I found in this book.I should say, I did not read the previous editions, but my thinking is that any subsequent book edition is a sign of success and an offering of not less than solid, battle tested material to learn, this book did disproof my belief.The Full Stack begins early on in the book and serves as the backbone of the subsequent app development which is exactly how I would write such a book or do a new project.Besides, I liked the tooling choices (it seems that Eclipse and VS Code are the top shelf today).The intro into React was an immersive gradual climb to delivering something of world class Web App. As an aside, I must say I have just seen too many "throw the reader into the water" styles of learning it before.In closing, this is a book to become a Web developer in a short time at your own pace for cheap.

Full Stack Development with Spring Boot 3 and React is a well structured introduction to full stack development with Spring Boot and React, suitable for both newcomers to Java and Spring Boot as well as experienced full stack developers exploring new technologies.The book is divided into three parts: backend development with Spring Boot, frontend development with React and TypeScript, and their integration.- Part one focuses on backend setup with Spring Boot and covers dependency injection, JPA for database interactions, creating a RESTful web service, and testing.- Part two covers frontend development with React with TypeScript, networking, REST API usage, and third-party components.- Part three focuses on integrating the React frontend with the Spring Boot backend and touches on implementing CRUD, styling with MUI, testing with Jest, as well as deployment with AWS, Netlify, and Docker containers.As a React enthusiast delving into full stack development with Java for the first time, this book has served a valuable guide and roadmap in my learning process. Hinkula's hands-on approach, practical examples, and concise explanations make it a superb resource for developers interested in getting up and running with Spring Boot and React.

The book has 20 chapters which can be completed in a months time to give you the skills to become a full stack developer or pick up another frontend framework. The book has 3 parts,- Part 1 covers Backend Programming with Spring Boot, starting with setting up the environment, touching on the salient features of the Spring eco-system, developing & testing REST APIs for the backend.- Part 2 covers Frontend Programming with React, starting with setting up the environment, touching on typescript and diving into React and building the UI using custom Hooks, 3rd party components and MUI. React apps are made out of components. The book covers how React components are JavaScript functions that return markup and help build scalable apps. The book covers the markup syntax used in React - JSX.- Part 3 covers Integrating the frontend with the backend, securing the frontend & backend, deploying the backend to AWS & frontend to Netlify, explores containerization options.

As a Software Engineering student I found this book very useful for improving my Gradle, Spring Boot, React, and Docker skills since these are technologies that I wish to use in my future careers. This book had very easy-to-follow instructions that I was able to complete successfully (although I had problems with the deployment chapter, but that was not the book's fault).
