gs-spring-boot VS initializr

You're welcome. You can do this fairly easily with straight java SE, but once you've done that take look at what Spring has to offer, in particular Spring Boot. Inversion of Control and Dependency Injection are super powerful!

You can try the official documentation on https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/ There are courses as well. Also you can check out https://www.baeldung.com/spring-boot

Spring does have a broilerplate "get it up and running" project. Go to start.sprint.io , configure whichever stuff you will need, download the project, import it in your IntelliJ, read and implement https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/ , then run it.

Soring's own guides are pretty good to be honest. https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/

Not necessarily a book recommendation but I’m a strong believer in actually implementing a project to learn about the tech stack. Spring has a great tutorial: https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/

Their docs are pretty complete. Here is an example with start to finish: https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/ It says you only need 15min and some libs.

Spring has a guide.

i use java with spring boot (link), also look up "MVC web development", i use thymeleaf in the html as part of the MVC approach. (i use maven to manage the packages.)

The best way, for generating a ready-to-run application in Java you can use the Spring Boot Initializr tool.

curl --location 'https://start.spring.io/starter.zip?type=maven-project&language=java&bootVersion=3.2.2&baseDir=ms-xcoffee&groupId=com.xcoffee&artifactId=ms-xcoffee&name=ms-xcoffee&description=Demo%20project%20for%20Spring%20Boot&packageName=com.xcoffee.ms-xcoffee&packaging=jar&javaVersion=21&dependencies=webflux%2Clombok%2Cvalidation' | tar -xzvf -

In this segment we will create a basic Spring boot app from Spring Initializer. Add the below dependencies:

Add the following MongoDB dependencies in your pom.xml or use spring initializer and select the Spring Data MongoDB dependency:

I created all of these applications using start.spring.io's REST API and HTTPie.

An easy way to create the skeleton project is to visit Spring Initializr, I set the Project to Gradle - Groovy, Language to Java, and add Spring Web dependency. Then it's just to generate the project and unpack it.

Create a new Spring Boot application using the Spring Initializr. You can use the web version or the curl command below. Use the default for most of the options. For the dependencies, select web, and okta. For the build tool, select Gradle.

I will start with a simple example of a cloud function, which is the same as a rest endpoint in the classical spring boot web application. You can create a project from your favorite IDE or from Spring Initliazr.
