This comprehensive, hands-on course empowers learners to design, build, integrate, test, secure, and optimize modern Java web applications using Spring Boot. Beginning with foundational concepts, participants will explore command-line tools, project scaffolding methods, RESTful application development, dynamic front-end rendering with Thymeleaf, and practical database integration using JPA and repositories.

The course then advances to application performance enhancement using caching with Redis and application monitoring through robust logging and configuration practices. Security is a key focus, where learners will implement role-based authentication and authorization using Spring Security. With a structured module-wise progression, real-world examples, quizzes, and Bloom's Taxonomy-aligned learning objectives, this course equips Java developers with the skills to deliver production-grade, maintainable, and secure Spring Boot applications.

This module introduces learners to the foundational concepts of Spring Boot and its Command Line Interface (CLI), setting the stage for rapid Java application development.
