Sample of the reviews:

★★★★★

I worked in some company, so I can say that this course is 100% industry oriented. The best course for learning Spring Framework. Getting replies within 24 hours.  – Premang

★★★★★

Chad Darby has done a superb job organizing this course, and has made Spring Framework, MVC, AOP, Hibernate, Security easy to learn and use. I have a bs and ms in CS, have been developing software for 25 years, and have taken many courses over the years at the different companies I’ve been at and Chad is easily the best instructor I’ve had.

He’s extremely well-organized and knowledgeable, and lays out this course in a step-by-step approach to fully cover the material and make it easy to learn. I highly recommend this course, and Chad as an instructor.

I’m adding to my review following Chad’s recent updates to his course to cover Spring Boot, JPA, etc. After finishing the course originally, I found another Spring Boot class, and after working on this other class, I appreciate more what Chad has done here. He’s made Spring Boot for CRUD applications with Thymeleaf very easy to follow and learn. I’ve taken half a dozen other software courses, and while other instructors might be good, Chad is the gold standard here. I can’t recommend him highly enough.  – Dave Zeltserman

What Is Spring?

Spring is an enterprise Java framework. It was designed to simplify Java EE development and make developers more productive. Spring makes use of Inversion of Control and Dependency Injection to promote good software coding practices and speed up development time.

This course covers Spring Core, Annotations, All Java Spring Configuration, Spring AOP, Spring MVC, Spring Security, Spring REST, Spring Boot and Spring Data JPA.

What Is Hibernate?

Hibernate is an Object-to-Relational-Mapping (ORM) framework. It simplifies database access for Java applications. By using the framework, you can easily store and retrieve Java objects by setting up some simple configuration mappings.

This course covers basic Hibernate CRUD. Also, advanced Hibernate mappings are covered for one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many.

Benefits of Taking This Spring and Hibernate Course

Knowing Spring and Hibernate can get you a job or improve the one you have. It’s a skill that will put you more in demand in the enterprise Java  industry, and make your software life easier, that’s why it’s so popular.

Compared to other Spring/Hibernate courses

This course is fully up to date and covers the latest versions of Spring 5 and Hibernate 5. The course also includes new content on Spring Boot, Spring Data JPA, Spring Data REST and Thymeleaf.

Beware of other Udemy Spring/Hibernate courses. Most of them are outdated and use old versions of Spring and Hibernate. Don’t waste your time or money on learning outdated technology.

Also, I create all of the code from scratch in this course. Beware of other courses, those instructors simply copy/paste from their github repo or they use pre-written code. Their approach is not ideal for real-time learning.

Take my course where I show you how to create all of the code from scratch. You can type the code along with me in the videos, which is the best way to learn.

I am a very responsive instructor and I am available to answer your questions and help you work through any problems.

Finally, all source code is provided with the course along with setup instructions.

Student Reviews Prove This Course’s Worth

Quality Material

You will receive a quality course, with solid technical material and excellent audio and video production. This is my fifth course at Udemy.

My first four courses on Udemy were:

• Eclipse IDE for Beginners
• Java Database Connection (JDBC)
• JavaServer Faces (JSF) for Beginners
• JSP and Servlets for Beginners

These courses have received rave 5 star reviews and over 315,000 students have taken the courses. Also, these courses are the most popular courses in their respective categories. 

Similar thing for this Spring course, it is ranked as #1 best seller for Spring courses.

I also have an active YouTube channel where I post regular videos. In the past year, I’ve created over 300 video tutorials (public and private). My YouTube channel has over 5 million views and 36k subscribers. So I understand what works and what doesn’t work for creating video tutorials.

No Risk – Money-Back Guarantee

Finally, there is no risk. You can preview 25% of the course for free. Once you purchase the course, if for some reason you are not happy with the course, Udemy offers a 30-day money back guarantee.
