About the Course

Spring Boot is one of the most in-demand frameworks for modern backend development—and this course takes you beyond the basics to help you build, secure, and deploy real-world applications with confidence.

This is Part 2 of the ultimate Spring Boot series. In Part 1, you mastered the fundamentals. In this part, we’ll put that knowledge into practice by building and deploying the backend for a real e-commerce application.

You’ll learn how to build clean and secure RESTful APIs, implement authentication and role-based access control, integrate with Stripe for payment processing, and deploy your application to the cloud.

This course goes beyond CRUD and boilerplate setups. You’ll learn how real production systems are built—with a strong focus on clean code, modular architecture, and real-world best practices.

Whether you’re preparing for a job, planning to build your own app, or just want to take your backend skills to the next level, this course is designed to get you there.

Highly Practical

What You'll Learn

  • Build RESTful APIs using Spring Boot
  • Validate incoming requests and handle errors with custom logic

Learn by Doing

What You'll Build

You’ll build the backend for a full-featured e-commerce application—complete with authentication, role-based access, a shopping cart, checkout flow, payment processing with Stripe, and cloud deployment.

This isn’t a basic CRUD app—it’s a real-world project that mirrors what professional backend developers build in production.

                      Been recommending Mosh for years... probably a decade by now. I've lost count of how many developers and business people I have shared one of his videos with. Not much to say other than he's one of the best instructors out there. Great personality for teaching and a solid mastery of the subject matter. He's always going to be my first stop for learning something new.

                      Mosh helped me land a job as as a Mobile software engineer

                      I'm a self taught software engineer. During this period of study I completed many courses, trying to emulate a computer science education. Mosh's courses helped me all the way and the ones I continue coming back to and referencing as a professional software engineer.

                      I already held a degree and didn't want to incure the cost of going to college again. I'm also pretty motivated, so Mosh's structured courses worked well for me.

                      May courses will teach you a framework or technology, but these are highly perishable skills. Mosh will teach you to think like a software engineer and load you with the correct fundamentals that will give you confidence when you get in the workplace.

                      Thanks for everything Mosh!

I've been learning from him for over four years, and the growth in my professional career has been remarkable. It's totally worth it. I am incredibly thankful to have found him.

                      Mosh comes up with the best, well-structured and informative courses as always. I have seen most of his YouTube videos in his channel and he is the main reason I fell in love with programming. Mosh not only teaches you the concepts, but also points out what it takes to be a professional developer that makes one stand out. I highly recommend his courses to all.

                      Thank you so much, Mosh

                      Mosh never ceases to amaze me. His courses are always top-notch. Mosh manages to teach complex things easily. Thanks to his React course, I became a programmer and got my first job. If you want to learn from the best, you should choose Mosh as your mentor.
