Full Stack CRUD Project with Spring Framework 6 and Vue.js 3 || Step by step

In this article, we will walk through the process of creating a full stack CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) project using Spring Framework 6 and Vue.js 3. This project will demonstrate how to build a modern web application with a Java backend and a JavaScript frontend.

Step 1: Setting up the Backend with Spring Framework 6

First, we need to set up the backend of our project using Spring Framework 6. We will create a new Java project and use the Spring Initializr to easily set up the project with the necessary dependencies and configurations. Once the project is set up, we will create a RESTful API to handle the CRUD operations for our application.

Step 2: Creating the Frontend with Vue.js 3

Next, we will create the frontend of our project using Vue.js 3. We will set up a new Vue project and use the Vue CLI to create the necessary files and configurations. We will also create the user interface for our application using Vue components and Vue Router to handle the navigation between different views.

Step 3: Integrating the Backend and Frontend

With both the backend and frontend set up, we will now integrate the two parts of our application. We will make HTTP requests from the frontend to the backend API using Axios, a popular HTTP client for JavaScript. We will also implement the necessary logic to send and receive data between the frontend and backend, allowing our application to perform CRUD operations.

Step 4: Implementing CRUD Functionality

Once the integration is complete, we will implement the CRUD functionality in our application. We will create forms and buttons to allow users to create, read, update, and delete data from the frontend, which will then be sent to the backend API to be processed and stored in the database.

Step 5: Testing and Deployment

Finally, we will test our application to ensure that everything is working as intended. We will also deploy our application to a production environment, where it can be accessed by users. This may involve deploying the backend to a server and the frontend to a web hosting service.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you will have created a full stack CRUD project using Spring Framework 6 and Vue.js 3. This project demonstrates the power of combining a Java backend with a JavaScript frontend to create modern and scalable web applications. We hope this article has been helpful in guiding you through the process of building a full stack application.
