Course Description
The ONLY Course That Covers Spring XML, Annotation-Based Configuration, and Spring Boot Fundamentals!
What Students Are Saying
“I’m Rajesh from Nepal and currently studying Software Engineering in China. I’m really happy with this course. He is the best teacher I’ve ever had. My concepts became very clear, and I understood everything well. Now I can confidently call myself a Java Spring Developer and work on large projects. I have used these skills to develop applications that are running successfully. Thank you so much, sir!”
— Rajesh
“The important thing about configuring Spring is understanding what configuration is required, why it is required, and where to get it—not just copying and pasting. That’s exactly what I liked about this course. The Spring JDBC section especially cleared my confusion about setting up a data source. Again, a really good course.”
— Swapneel Shinde
“I started this course with no prior experience in the Spring Framework. After completing it, I feel very confident. The knowledge can be applied both professionally and personally. The videos are short, concise, and cover exactly what is needed.”
— Ankur Sharma
“Bharath’s classes are excellent and easy to understand. I have taken his Web Services courses before, so I already knew his teaching style, and this course maintains the same high quality.”
— Mohammed Raes

So, this is my second course from Bharat(Instructor), First course was JDBC Servlet and JSP course, I took this course because I like how he teaches everything in a very simpler way. The accent is also very clear. I already knew about Spring, Spring Boot and Microservices and all, I always used to hear that Spring Boot makes everything easy to create a production ready application But I never get the true feeling of that. But after completing this course I finally understood how Spring Boot makes everything easy and what exactly Spring Boot does in background for us. I really want to thanks Bharat for making such a valuable course.
By Jose Antonio Dominguez on 7/20/2023
I do not recommend this course since by today's standards most of the concepts and practices this course provides are outdated, deprecated or is legacy code. You're gonna face problems and challenges like annotations that are not compatible with newer versions of the framework, a big part of the course you modified the XML file which today is considered an outdated and even legacy practice, there are courses who offer a more up to day information with more engaging slides and resource material.

Thank you so much Bharath for this wonderful series of Java Development in which this would be my 3rd course. I'm in awe by the flawless execution of your teaching skills which is such well organized, summarized and concise, yet covers all the basic concepts and answers almost all my questions that I get in my mind . Thank you again, Bharath. Please keep up the good work. I wouldn't get the good package jobs that I'm getting without this series. I was in administration project with insignificant knowledge about Java, and no knowledge of Spring's existence even. You set a roadmap for me in your learning path lecture. I owe you my success. You're a good man and you put effort in your each and every course and respond to our doubts immediately. Keep up the good work. Let us have more such courses. May God bless you.

Another very good course from Bharath. Direct and to the point with great explanations. The examples are straightforward and cover the ground of SpringFramework. Maven is used which makes it easier to follow. I worked through everything using Intellij although the course uses Eclipse, the main differences were getting things like MVC up and running and the placement of xml config files. There are quizzes, a few simple assessments, interview QA as well as a downloadable slide deck . The way the whole thing is laid out also makes it easy for use later on as reference material. This is a relatively shorter course on Spring at 13 hours but covers so many topics and I consider it to be money and time well spent. Thank you Bharath.
By Betty Jo Booth on 11/30/2020
This course exceeded my expectations. It covered a broad spectrum of topics and did so in a way that the knowledge you take away will allow you to 1) work with older and newer versions of Spring, 2) gain knowledge of why things work the way they do (important for troubleshooting/debugging), and 3) work on course topics that logically build on earlier ones. Regarding #1, an example is that the various methods of configuring Spring was offered (XML, annotations, Java configuration classes). This is important to know because not all projects at various companies have moved their code forward and some prefer XML over annotations for instance. Regarding #3, the class began with Spring basics (various means of DI) and went on to include a database using Spring JDBC followed by ORM / Hibernate and even JPA. The beauty of this order is that JDBC requires you to recall that SQL is still required at the core, while the Hibernate and JPA build it for you and you barely know it's there. I believe it is good to have the foundational (behind the scenes) knowledge when things go wrong because you still have the big picture of what might be broken and where to look in the configuration / setup. The course also covered MVC and various ways for sharing data between client (browser) and the server. Getting the necessary IDE's, DB's, server (Tomcat) set up was also clearly explained as well as using Spring for a standalone app or the (likely more common) web app. At the end of the course, the interview questions were helpful. I created by own answers to keep as a quick reference.

By Nihar Dash on 10/10/2020
I am revisiting the Java and related frameworks after a gap of 6-7 years .Its very interesting one .The explanation by the instructor seems he has the right approach for every learner . I can't wait more without saying "THANK YOU " .

Amazing course, everything was clear for me!
By Elena Shevchenko on 9/20/2020
The technical part of set up could be explained better. took a while to install everything correctly. The explanations and examples are great!
By Ayushman Tiwari on 9/20/2020
Excellent course by Bharat. Must for anyone who wants to learn Spring Framework. I learnt a lot as an experienced software developer. Deducted one star as sections on Aspect Oriented Programming and Spring Expression Language can be improved. Also I request you to upgrade the course to latest Spring 5 as it is becoming increasingly popular and common.
By Saswata Bagchi on 9/19/2020
All concepts are cleared in happy flow , but exception handling I guess Bharat need to include .
