In this advanced-level course, you’ll learn to create REST APIs using the Spring Framework. The course gives a detailed experience in designing, implementing, and documenting REST APIs with end-to-end features like database integration and monitoring.

Firstly, you'll set up a Spring Boot project and create fully-functional REST APIs to manage your to-do lists. Secondly, you’ll learn database integration using Spring Data JPA and consume APIs using various tools such as cURL, Postman, and the Swagger UI. Thirdly, you'll learn Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) in Spring and Unit test the APIs using Spring Framework. Lastly, you’ll learn to document APIs using Springfox and Spring REST Docs and monitor them using the Spring Boot Actuator. 

By the end of this course, you'll be confident to design, implement, and document REST APIs end-to-end using the Spring Framework, including advanced topics like AOP, Unit Testing, and Monitoring.

REST APIs with Spring, JPA, and Springfox

The Spring framework allows us to declare a  #key# service class: A class to deliver business logic. #key# by adding the `@Service` annotation. The `@Service` annotation enables spring-context to autodetect the service class and provides its singleton instance from the context wherever required.

Like controllers, services should exist in the `io.educative.services` package. So, let’s first create the service classes `TodoService` and `TodoTypeService` corresponding to the `Todo` and `TodoType` POJOs. We’ll explore how to use them later.

Let’s learn how to create services in the Spring framework and inject them into controllers.
