Übungsprojekt

Each course includes graded projects building real applications. In Course 1, you build a console banking application demonstrating OOP principles, collections, and exception handling, followed by a student course registration system as a comprehensive graded project. In Course 2, you apply Streams and functional programming to data processing tasks, build concurrent applications with threads and executors, connect to databases with JDBC, and complete refactoring exercises applying SOLID principles and design patterns with JUnit 5 test coverage. In Course 3, you complete a two-part enterprise capstone building a full application with REST APIs, Spring Data JPA persistence, input validation, JWT-based security, microservices communication, and Docker containerization.
