CSE 122 Spring Demo

Demo project for showing how to make a web app backed by Java using Spring

Recommend to first follow this tutorial to set up the project, and then add these files to the project:

Backend

src/main/java/com/example/springdemo/SpringDemoApplication.java - The main Spring Controller. This has the methods that link the URL links to specific Java methods.
src/main/java/com/example/springdemo/model/FavoritesList.java - The FavoriteList class from the OOP It example.

Frontend

src/main/resources/static/index.html - The main HTML file for outlining the content of the page.
src/main/resources/static/stlye.css - The CSS file for overriding styles. Note this is minimal because the index.html also includes Bootstrap (a CSS library for good default styles)
src/main/resources/static/index.html - The main JS file for outlinng how to update the page state and add interactivity for the page.

Preview

The app as written is fairly simple and doesn't do a lot of extra things. Here are some ideas for other features to add to the program.

Add the ability for users to log in and have their own set of favorite books (right now, everyone shares the same favorite book list).
Let users compare each other's favorite books.
Provide more control over the ordering of the favorite books.
And many other ideas!
