Hi, I'm Dimitar

In the previous post, we explored the structure of a Spring Boot application using advanced modular architecture. This time, let’s shift gears to discuss how to enhance observability in Spring Boot microservices and applications. Specifically, we’ll delve into how integrating Micrometer, OpenTelemetry, and the Spring Modulith Starter Insight can offer... [Read More]

In the previous blog post, we explored advanced Spring Boot architecture, delving into clean architecture and modularity. This follow-up post will focus on implementing Test-Driven Development (TDD) in Spring Boot using the Inventory entity as a practical example. We’ll clarify the differences between unit, mock, and integration testing while providing... [Read More]

Advanced practices in software development not only streamline production but also enhance the maintainability and scalability of applications. This blog post delves into constructing a Spring Boot application, utilizing Docker for consistent local environment, Zipkin for tracing, and strategies to achieve 100% code coverage. We’ll explore setting up a feature-based... [Read More]

Testing is a crucial part of any application development process, especially when building RESTful APIs with Spring Boot. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through a practical example of testing CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) REST APIs for a Person entity using Spring Data JPA with H2 as the... [Read More]

In this blog post, we will embark on an exciting journey of building a full-fledged Spring Boot Monolith application implementing CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on a Person entity. We’ll leverage JPA for data persistence, Swagger for API documentation, Postgres as our database, and Vue.js 3 for the front-end.... [Read More]

In the world of Java development, Spring Boot has become synonymous with creating robust, scalable, and maintainable web applications. Traditionally, building a Spring Boot application involved setting up a project with a complex directory structure, multiple configuration files, and various dependencies. However, with the advent of JBang, a lightweight scripting... [Read More]
