English | 2017 | 404 Pages | EPUB, AZW3, PDF (conv) | 24 MB

Learn how to build a multi-tier web application, from the database through to the user interface. This book will teach you the concepts that underpin each layer. I provide a complete worked example for you to build and adapt for your own projects.
We begin by understanding the three layer architecture, how large systems are broken up into manageable pieces.
I introduce a problem to solve, a toy lending library. This provides the motivation for the rest of the book. It could easily be adapted for any small scale data management application you have in mind.
I show you how to build a development environment, by building a Linux virtual machine and installing all the development tools (IntelliJ IDEA, Maven, GIT)
We design and build a custom MySQL database.
We design and build a Java REST Application for deployment to the WildFly web container.
We design and build a user interface using HTML, JavaScript, Bootstrap and React.js
We use bash scripts to manage the build and deployment process.
This project will give you a great overview of how to integrate multiple parts into a complete working system and give you a platform on which to build your own ideas.
