This course is your guide to using Spring Boot 2 and Spring WebFlux to create Reactive Web Applications. 

You will learn how to build a full-reactive system from the database (MongoDB reactive) to the front-end (Angular), using a Reactive programming strategy leveraged by Spring WebFlux, with the simplicity offered by Spring Boot 2. 

Beyond that though, you will be able to compare the Spring WebFlux with the standard MVC approach as well, covering the main aspects such as simplicity, performance, user experience, and more.

The last part of the course ties it all up by teaching you to run the application using Docker compose. By the end of this course, you will have a great new skill for your resume and you’ll be able to build your own projects using the full Reactive stack.

> Remember that the complete source code (Spring Boot, Angular, and Docker) is available on GitHub: [Full-Reactive Stack repository](https://github.com/mechero/full-reactive-stack). If you find it useful, please star it!

## Local setup 

Let's quickly see how you can run MongoDB on your machine before you try it for yourself on the Educative platform.

This step is optional. You can also install MongoDB on your machine, and it’ll work the same way. However, in the course's appendix, you'll see how to run the complete reactive system using Docker, so it’s good to follow this approach to get the first contact with this tool.

You need to install Docker if you haven’t done so yet. Then, create a file named `docker-compose-mongo-only.yml` with this content:
