Project Structure

Controller

• Responsibility: Handles HTTP requests, interacts with services, and manages the flow of data to and from the client.
• Advantages: Separation of concerns, facilitates testing, and maintains a clean and clear API endpoint structure.

Entities

• Responsibility: Represents the data model of your application. Entities are typically mapped to database tables.
• Advantages: Encapsulates data, provides a clear structure for the database schema, and allows for easy conversion between Java objects and database records.

Services

• Responsibility: Business logic and application-specific functionality reside here. Services interact with entities and repositories.
• Advantages: Encapsulation of business logic, promotes reusability, and keeps controllers lightweight.

Repositories

• Responsibility: Handles database operations. Repositories interact with the database and provide an abstraction layer over the underlying data store.
• Advantages: Separates data access logic from business logic, enables easy switching of data sources, and promotes code cleanliness.

First Steps: Spring Boot, Maven, and MySQL

1. Setup Spring Boot Project: Create a new Spring Boot project using Spring Initializer .

2. Configure MySQL: Update application.properties in the src/main/resources folder with your MySQL database configuration:

   spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/your_database
   spring.datasource.username=your_username
   spring.datasource.password=your_password
   spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update
