About

In the Internet, you can often find sites where you need to answer some questions. It can be educational sites, sites with psychological tests, job search services, or just entertaining sites like web quests. The common thing for them is the ability to answer questions (or quizzes) and then see some results. In this project, you will develop a multi-users web service for creating and solving quizzes.

This course provides an exceptional and immersive dive into the core of back-end development. It doesn't just scratch the surface; it throws you directly into crucial topics like application logic, security principles, system architecture, and industry-standard best practices.

This project is a good learning experience. I learned a lot and refreshed my Spring framework knowledge. Never quit. my debugging skills got better. Knowledge of SQL and relational data modelling is a must before starting this project. Good luck all:)
