Build an eCommerce Website with Java Servlets, JSP, and Hibernate

Building web applications requires a solid understanding of how backend logic, databases, and frontends interact. This course guides you through the process of developing a fully functional online bookstore using Java's core web technologies. You will transition from writing basic Java code to designing a complete, database-driven web application. By working through the architecture of an eCommerce site, you will gain practical experience with server-side logic, dynamic page rendering, and object-relational mapping. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational concepts of Java Servlets, JSP, and HTTP request-response lifecycles. - Configure Hibernate to map Java classes to relational database tables seamlessly. - Build core eCommerce features including a shopping cart, user authentication, and product catalog management. - Apply modern Java features like Records for clean data transfer and modern Maven project structures. - Implement secure coding practices such as password hashing and SQL injection prevention. - Design a dynamic frontend using JSP standard tag libraries (JSTL) and expression language. The course starts with fundamental web concepts and database setup before moving step-by-step through backend development, database integration, and frontend presentation. This text-based course is designed for beginner Java programmers who want to step into full-stack web development, requiring no prior experience with web frameworks.
