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 create a complex web service and learn about REST API, an embedded database, security, and other technologies. If you would like to continue the project, you could develop a web or mobile client for this web service on your own.

Graduate project

This project covers the core topics of the Java Backend Developer (Spring Boot) course, making it sufficiently challenging to be a proud addition to your portfolio.

At least one graduate project is required to complete the course.

What you'll learn

Once you choose a project, we'll provide you with a study plan that includes all the necessary topics from your course to get it built. Here’s what awaits you:
Create a basic API to accept answers for a single quiz.
Add more endpoints to the API to deal with multiple quizzes.
Expand the API and allow users to publish new quizzes.
Migrate the quiz engine from in-memory storage to a relational database.
Introduce user registration and protect quizzes from unauthorized modification.
Add paging and sorting to responses and track statistics for each user.

Finally got to sink my teeth into Spring Data and Spring Security. Enjoyable, good balance of provided guidance vs challenges outside the lesson scope.
