About

This course will take you step-by-step through the most popular tools used with the Java language—all with practical use cases. In order to introduce you to the broader aspects of what you need to know as a project team member. After years of application development experience and scores of interviews, our author has compiled the perfect guide to becoming a Java developer.

You'll gain hands-on experience of working with Spring and Spring Boot, SQL/MySQL, Hibernate, JUnit, and the other tools that are part of the Java Stack and are essential in a production environment.

Apart from learning how and when to use each of the tools, you will also scale-up your knowledge of Java by learning some lesser-known tips and tricks that will set you above the rest.

By the end of the course, you'll be fully prepared to take on your next big project.
