Getting started with Dropwizard

In this course you'll learn how to create a simple RESTlike API using Java programming language and Dropwizard, a popular framework to build RESTful APIs and microservices. The course begins with a brief introduction to REST architecture style principles and an overview of an example application to store bookmarks, called DropBookmarks, we'll build throughout the course.

In the following parts you'll create a Hello World application using Dropwizard, learn how to test the application and use various tools to check the output of restful APIs. Also you'll learn how to connect to a relational database using Hibernate ORM framework, how to use database migrations with Liquibase and how to secure your API using Basic Authentication.

The course currently consists of 59 lectures and 4 hours of video. After taking this course you'll be able to start developing RESTlike APIs at Level 2 of Richardson Maturity Model and microservices using Java and Dropwizard. Also, some of the topics you'll learn may be useful for development of Web-based Java applications using other frameworks.
