Learning Java Spring Boot

In this repository I am going to share what I'm learning so that it can be useful for you and me, hope you like this content as much as I am enjoying this learning process :)

Roadmap

• Download an Integrated Development Environment(In this case I'm going to use IntelliJ Idea)
• Install and configure a Java Development Kit(version 17 or above)
• After create a project, create a new class called Main
• Configure your pom.xml file
• Include @SpringBootApplication above your Main class declaration
• Call the method SpringApplication.run(Main.class, args) in your Main class -> We will make a Servlet here, wich is a process to handle HTTP requests, so Tomcat will run in the background and we'll have to configure the Port to 8080

Next Steps:

• In the folther src/main/resources of our project, create a new file called application.yml
• Define the Port to be used by our Servlet like:

  server:
      port:8080
  

• Configure the spring servlet also in the application.yml this way:

  spring:
      main:
          web-application-type: servlet
  

You can run it and you'll see that it is really running on Port 8080 :)
