🚀 Spring Boot Server Application

Overview

This repository contains a robust RESTful API server built with Spring Boot. The application provides the backend services for my Angular client, handles authentication, business logic, and data persistence. The client code can be found on [https://github.com/BongaGougota0/Angular_Client]

🔧 Technologies

• Spring Boot: Java-based framework for creating stand-alone production-grade applications
• Spring Security: Authentication and authorization
• Spring Data JPA: Data persistence and ORM
• Hibernate: Object-relational mapping
• Mysql: Relational database
• Lombok: Boilerplate code reduction

📋 Requirements

• JDK 17 or later (this project : Java 21)
• Maven 3.8.x
• MySQL 8.x
