Course Description

There is no doubt that having Spring Framework skills on your rsum will make you a more employable Java developer.
Spring developers are in high demand and are paid handsomely. However, the framework is huge. Thats because it consists of lots of modules and projects. Learning it can take you months. You will often find that a Java Spring tutorial or training course will focus on parts of the framework that dont get used that much.
What Spring technologies should you focus on initially?
Many Java spring courses teach you all sorts of things you really dont need to know when you are starting out.
If you are just starting out with Spring, the areas that will have the biggest impact for you are Spring Core, Spring MVC and Spring Boot 2.
Spring Core is an application framework and inversion of control (ioc) container for the java platform.
Spring MVC, or Spring Web MVC to be more precise is a web framework and provides Model View Controller architecture. Its built around a DispatcherServlet.
Spring Boot 2.
0 is a way to create standalone Spring based Applications that you can just run so it simplifies the entire process of creating and deploying Spring apps It can embed databases and do all sorts of configuration automatically.
These three areas are a great place to start just having these skills will take you a long way. Of course, there is more to learn, but these are the areas to focus on initially.
Why this course is perfect if you want to learn Spring 5 fast.
Firstly, here are some comments about the course."Great and deep understanding of Spring in this course. Perfect speed, new technologies, and explanation of every detail. " - Arkadiusz Siry"Amazing.
Very good instructions" - Emmanuel Akono SarsahCheck the reviews for more - This is one of the highest rated Spring courses on Udemy.
A Java Spring tutorial needs to teach you the core technologies listed above as an absolute minimum. This course will get you up to speed with those technologies.
Having good knowledge of a Java template engine that works with the Spring 5 framework, and a detailed understanding of the build tools (for building single and multi module projects) is highly desirable.
Weve added comprehensive training for Thymeleaf 4 as well as Maven 3 in the course to give you those skills.
This content is ready for you to get started with today. Weve been working hard on some final training that we believe will round out a Spring developers skills perfectly.
The final content we are in the process of adding to the course now is for Gradle (another build tool), Spring Data (provides access to persistence stores), JPA (Java Persistence Layer), Hibernate (Object Relational Mapping tool) and database versioning (like source control but for databases).
This content will be provided to existing students in the course for free in the coming weeks.
Bonus Free Spring trainingOur original course was released with Spring 4 which was the current version at the time we created a course around that, using the Eclipse editor.
Unlike other Udemy Spring courses, we completely upgraded the content to Spring 5 We re-recorded what is effectively a brand new course for Spring 5 using JetBrains award winning IntelliJ IDEA and released if free to existing students.
This older content is still available for you to access after you have been through the brand new training Its still useful as some companies still use Spring 4 technology.
What skills do you need to take the course?
This course is for anyone who wants to get into Spring framework programming. We assume you have never used Spring previously.
Any Java Enterprise edition (Java EE) technology requires you to know at least some Java programming. Thats because Java EE is built on top of the Java Standard Edition (Java SE). Thats the regular Java language.
The Spring Framework is built on top of Java EE, and thus you need to have some basic Java programming skills to be able to go through this course.
If youve been through at least some of the Java Masterclass on Udemy (created by one of the instructors in this course) or similar Java training, then you will have no problem going through the course.
Who are the instructors?
Your instructors are Tim Buchalka and Goran Lochert. Both have many years of commercial programming experience using the technologies taught in the course.
Tim has been working with Java for 18 years, and Goran is both Spring certified and Oracle Java certified. They have a number of very successful Udemy courses, including Tims Java Masterclass and Gorans Oracle Java Certification course.
Heres whats important. Therere lot of people teaching Spring who are not developers. Were developers with many years experience with JEE and Spring, who also teach Spring.
And you guessed it. Learning Spring the wrong way is not only a wasted opportunity, it may harm your career in the long run. If you dont follow industry best practices when creating Spring projects, you not going to fit in well with a future employer.
Because you are working with career professional developers, you will learn Spring 5 the right way in this course.
What if you have questions?
As if this course wasnt complete enough, we offer full support, answering any questions you have 7 days a week (whereas many instructors answer just once per week, or not at all). This means youll never find yourself stuck on one lesson for days on end. With our hand-holding guidance, youll progress smoothly through this course without any major roadblocks.

Instructor Details

Tim Buchalka

Tim's been a professional software developer for over 35 years. During his career, he has worked for major companies such as Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, and Saab.

His video courses are used to train developers in major companies such as Mercedes-Benz, Paypal, VW, Pitney Bowes, IBM, and T-Mobile just to name a few (via the Udemy for Business program).

What makes Tim unique is his professional programming career - many instructors have never programmed professionally, let alone had a distinguished professional development career like Tim.

Tim has trained over 831,000 students how to program, way more than a typical ITProfessor at a college does in a lifetime.

In fact, Tim's courses are often purchased by students struggling to get through college programming courses.
"I am learning a lot about Java very quickly. I wish my college courses worked this way, they drag the same amount of material out over months." - Thomas Neal

"I love this guy. I'm in school for java right now at a local college and I bought this course hoping it would help clarify the fuzzy areas of my coursework. There's no comparison. Every time I get lost in my textbook, I watch a couple more of these videos and I'm right back on track. He explains everything so perfectly. It sinks right in." - Kristen Andreani

"Tim is a great instructor, I have more courses from him and all are great. This one really helped me with my understanding of Java from the very beginnings. In fact

This course was nice but, in my opinion, too long due to keeping legacies videos.
I learned very interessant thinks.

By Cristian Dumitrescu on 10/17/2020

very understandable. I had no problem following the instructions

By Darwin Tirta Kayuwangsa on 10/13/2020

Superb training, easy to understand, detail materials.

By Kevin T Stradtman on 10/8/2020

This course is very good, Tim is a great teacher, but there is one very big flaw with this course. Most of the time you will run into a lot of errors. The Q and A section for this course is a bust. Goran is the persons name and the only offer of advice that he gives you to fix your solution is, "Look at the source code". Literally tells everyone to do that. I could do that with no knowledge of the Java Spring language. I hope Tim doesn't waste his money on that guy because he doesn't help anyone in the course and would rather him not answer to the students anymore. Thanks for nothing Goran!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Los subtitulos no estn muy bien traducidos

By Tim Krger on 9/4/2020

good introduction
intellij is a big plus
good challenges
But,
don't talk so fast.
delete the old or update the course.
after 3 hours the high voice gets hmmm (sorry very personal, but I needed a break just because of that)

By Jason Westbrook on 8/26/2020

When I initially reviewed this course I gave it 3 stars however, now that I've completed the NEW section I've decided to lower my rating to 1 star. If you are looking for a course on the Spring framework I would strongly urge you to pass on it. Here's why:
1. Fundamentals and terminology are glossed over. For being a "masterclass" I would expect it to be a complete course. However, Tim assumes you know all the basics going into it. From beans, to annotations and everything in between - none of this is gone through and explained hardly at all. You're expected to just do it and go along with it but without any context of the what or why you're doing it makes the beginning content very frustrating to get through. I was hoping that by the end of the course I would have more confidence in these fundamentals but unfortunately I do not.
2. Promises made - never kept: testing is a pretty big deal in the software world and knowing how to write tests is pretty important. I know that Spring has functionality to cover this - and Tim actually states in one of the videos that testing will be covered later in the course but this never happens. I was really looking forward to learning how to write tests using the Spring framework but that content is just not here.
3. Old content (and I'm not referring to the OLD sections that are nearly obsolete and comprise half of this course as it is): let's talk about Gradle. The Gradle content was obviously made some time after the previous parts of the course. Even still, it's been so long since any update was made to this course (November 2018 according to the instructor's note at the end) that the build.gradle file looks and is configured radically different than how he configures it in the video. This is huge and essentially ensures the student can only follow along and not code along.
Because the last time this course was updated was in November 2018 I have zero confidence this course will ever be updated again. At this point I can't help but feel that the entire course needs a complete overhaul and can not recommend it.

By Melvyn Shepherd on 8/20/2020

It's nearly two years since you announced further updates to this coursework, do you have any updates ?
The Gradle part of the course, working with 'multiple modules' is difficult to follow if you are using the latest version of Gradle.

By Jos Alcntara on 8/18/2020

The first sections of the course are great and teach you a lot, but the course hasn't been updated since almost two years ago, and there are things like JDBC and the NEW gradle section that are not up to date. The team hasn't provide a date for the next update, so it seems I'll have to look for another course to learn something about gradle, JDBC, and Hibernate, which isn't in the course either.
