Description

Welcome to the React & Spring Boot Masterclass: Full-Stack Authentication Application!  In this course, you’ll learn how to build a complete authentication system from scratch, using React for the front end and Spring Boot for the back end. Along the way, we’ll style our app using Tailwind CSS and build modern, reusable components with ShadCN, ensuring a professional and responsive UI.Curriculum OverviewHere’s what we’ll cover in detail:Setting up a React application from scratch.Using Tailwind CSS for styling and ShadCN for creating reusable UI components.Designing authentication screens – registration, login, forgot password, and reset password.Introduction to Spring Boot fundamentals and project setup.Connecting Spring Boot with a database.Understanding controllers and services in Spring Boot.Building user registration API with database integration.Implementing user login API with JWT tokens for secure sessions.Adding Spring Security to protect private routes and allow public routes.Implementing email verification after registration.Password reset feature with email integration.Deploying both React and Spring Boot applications to cloud platforms.By the end of this course, you’ll have a solid understanding of how full-stack authentication works in modern applications.  Thank you for choosing this course — I’m excited to guide you on your journey to becoming a skilled full-stack developer!
