Course Description

Are you a Java developer eager to level up your skills with Spring?

Do you want to create scalable, secure, and production-ready applications using industry-standard tools like Spring Boot, Spring MVC, Spring Security, and more?

Have you felt frustrated with repetitive, shallow projects and longed for a hands-on, comprehensive learning experience that mirrors real-world challenges?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you’re in the right place.

What Makes This Course Stand Out?

  • Comprehensive, Real-World Learning: Build an industry-grade full-stack Spring web application from scratch. This course goes beyond simple clones to deliver deep insights into building robust, enterprise-level software.

  • Step-by-Step, Hands-On Approach: Code along with practical examples covering every aspect of the Spring ecosystem—from Spring Framework 5 fundamentals to advanced topics like AOP, JPA, and RESTful API development.

  • Modern Tools & Best Practices: Master production deployment with AWS and containerization using Docker. Learn to integrate real databases like PostgreSQL and apply industry-relevant configurations for both development and integration testing.

  • Structured Learning for All Levels: Whether you’re a beginner or looking to enhance your existing Spring skills, this course provides a clear progression that transitions you from basic concepts to advanced application development.

Why Spring Is Essential for your Career?

Spring is, by far, the most popular framework for application development in the Java ecosystem. Nothing else even comes close. Why? Because it makes software development so much easier in Java. You can build webapps, mobile apps, desktop apps, batch and big data apps and services in a record time using Spring. Spring does a lot of things right, and it's getting better and better with each release. There aren't a lot of technologies with the kind of wide reach, stability and maturity of Spring, that still move fast and innovate. That's a really tough balance to hit, and Spring has been a leader in that space for over a decade.

Today, Spring, along with Boot, is a polished, modern and highly expressive framework that makes building apps like twitter almost trivial (easily passes the twitter test). So, the popularity of the Spring ecosystem is well deserved. If you're working in Java, you're very likely doing work with Spring because 90% of all Java projects use Spring!

This course will prepare you to become an expert on the Spring Framework. Together, we will build an industry standard Spring Web Application which will transition you from a beginner to an experienced and employable Spring Developer. We will build a real world application in which we will cover topics and practices that are used throughout the industry. You will type every line of code along with me, as I explain, to ensure that you fully comprehend the subject matter. I will be available to answer any questions that you may have, so you will never be stuck on a section, or have confused on any topic.

STUDENT REVIEWS

Don’t just take it from me, take it from other students who have taken this course. Here are reviews from real students who took this course:

★★★★★ Can't thank enough for this course! It's helping me a ton at my job! Great instructor!

★★★★★ The course material is very organized and to the point. Imtiaz is a very good instructor and he makes complex ideas very easy to grasp with to-the-point examples. Really liking the course so far.

★★★★★ Worth it, covers so many topics, beginner or expert you will learn new things or a new vision!

★★★★★ Simple and precise. Best course for Spring beyond Udemy and Yt if you want to see how to develop real time application, not just some surfaced examples. Teacher is thorough, slowly shows every step very clearly. Very professional. Bravo.

★★★★★ Absolutely has to be the best Spring web development course on Udemy!

★★★★★ Excellent course so far! The instructor does a fantastic job introducing small pieces at a time, and then slowly building upon the previous piece. At each step, we get to see the effects of the code we are writing.

★★★★★ First thing first, can I just say how captivating your voice is? Your voice is like music to human ears and the way you explain things is just captivating/soothing? Your style seems to be thorough, to the point and patient. I have just finished section 1 and so far the content has also been really good. I have not forgotten anything you've said so far and whatever code you've shown so far, I can write from the scratch without looking it up. So I have to say, I rate this course 5 out of 5.

★★★★★ The instructor tries his best to explain each action he is doing while coding. He tries his best to focus on what is important. His voice is very clear. He repeats the important points to set the focus on what you need to remember. He doesn’t make you lose time with non essential concepts which is good because you can see where you need to spend your learning time.

Instructor Details

Job Ready Programmer

You can’t learn programming from reading books or online fill-in-the-blank type tutorials. Especially the online tutorials with browser based exercises where you code directly in your browser. The problem with that approach is that it doesn’t provide practical experience. It provides an illusion of learning something as it tugs you along to complete an assignment that’s more of a fill-in-the-blank type problem. A student feels like they’ve learned something but that knowledge does not stick. Unfortunately that experience will not help in an interview nor an actual project. Valuable time ends up going to complete waste. At JRP (JobReadyProgrammer), we don’t follow hype. We do what works! We take a traditional route to teaching how to code advancing slowly & patiently in the lectures often repeating key concepts in multiple different ways to help students really solidify the knowledge and mold their foundation to discover how to code properly and then boy do we test the skills! Students are put right in the middle of a practical real-world programming assignment to apply everything they've learned. So enough of those “key in the next few commands to fill in the puzzle and we’ll advance you” kind of tutorials. Here you’ll need to roll up your sleeves and get to work on solving practical programming assignments.

It's a great and digestible introduction to spring and spring boot, I think for the time the course takes (16h). It does the job pretty well at introducing most important concepts of the framework, obviously in a 16h course you will not get too deep in any one of the concepts but it makes you able to learn the rest by yourself and is short enough it won't bore you to death listing all the spring features like some other courses do. The only room for improvement in my opinion is spending a little more time clearning up the project at the end. We could have made the project a lot more functional by relating the employee entity and the spring user accounts, all of this could be done by showing how to use a custom UserDetails and UserDetailsService class. I also think the API section should be more in depth as nowadays most companies only ever use spring boot as a back end REST api. Thymeleaf templates are a thing of the past for the most part.

By Jeffery L Rice on 9/21/2021

I was working through the course pretty well, until I came to a roadblock. It appears that many others have reached the same roadblock, and have asked questions on how to proceed. I too asked a question, but the technical assistant did a poor job of explaining the error, and his responses are very delayed. The instructor mentioned at the beginning of the course he would generally respond to questions within 48 hours, however it has been a month sine I last asked a question and have received no response. The initial response I received did not help with understanding of why the issue was even occurring to begin with. I would have expected more from this course.

By Rex Bosma on 11/21/2020

The pace and style of the instructor is very good. Excellent example project also to take you through all the topics

By Jonathan Platt on 11/21/2020

This course suited my learning style perfectly. You will learn to build a spring boot application from the ground up. This really helps consolidate the concepts and will give you the confidence to have a go on your own. I am a big fan of Imitiaz's courses. Always very well explained. Awesome for beginners. Thank you.

By Ahmad Abu Zahra on 11/14/2020

the translation was'nt enough clear

By Paul Koval on 11/14/2020

The whole project is kind of small and I didn't like the rhetorics of the teacher: "... and this works, I'll prove it to you". Programming it's not about assumptions and proof, it's about knowledge. BUT!!! The course covers all the necessary questions that you might/will have during self-education. The answers that hard to find on StackOverflow or documentation of Spring (if you don't know what specifically you're looking for). I would recommend this course for beginners in Java Web Development, but this course will not make you job-ready. There is a big path to go and this is definitely a GREAT start! Nevertheless, thanks Imtiaz for the course!

By Gary Griffaw on 11/14/2020

Imtiaz does an excellent job explaining the topics. I learned a lot about Spring and Thymeleaf.

By Surja Gain on 11/7/2020

This is a practical hands on course on Spring which gradually builds a Personal Management Project as it incorporates the different Spring framework features.
The teacher, Mr. Imtiaz Ahmad, is very fluent in what he teaches and course structure and material that he has put together explains the various concepts clearly and at just right pace. I think that this is one of the best courses on Udemy or anywhere which teaches the Spring framework.

By Morshed Basher on 11/7/2020

for rocky, Interviewer always asking about Spring Dependency, so make sure you always see this video over and over to get clean concept about Spring Dependency! Good Job Imtiaz Bhai!

By Georgian Georgian on 10/31/2020

It was a great course. For me as a beginner it was pretty challenging (especially the part with application deployment on AWS as I had no prior knowledge of Linux). Along there will be errors which Imtiaz does not come across it, but that's the interesting part where I had to find the solution for solving these (I think it's almost impossible to get all of the code from the first time). Imtiaz is a really good teacher and the course content is great.
