Technology Stack for Full Stack Application Development
1. Frontend Development
• Technology: ReactJS
o Learn how to create a responsive and dynamic user interface.
o Develop features according to the project scenario and may be as:
▪ Product listing
▪ Filtering options
▪ Shopping cart functionality
o Fetch and display data from backend services using REST APIs.
o Handle static assets (e.g., images) stored on cloud platforms.
2. Backend Development
• Framework: Spring Boot (Microservices Architecture)
o Microservices Design:
▪ Understand modularity and service isolation.
▪ Authentication Service:
▪ Implement user login, registration, and JWT token-based
authentication.
▪ Database Service:
▪ Manage the CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations.
o API Development:
▪ Design and implement secure RESTful APIs for communication between
the frontend and backend.
3. Database Management
• Relational Database: MySQL
o Store structured data such as user details, product catalog, and order
information.
o Learn schema design and SQL query optimization.
4. Cloud Computing
• Deployment and Hosting:
o Host backend and frontend components on cloud platforms.
o Implement load balancing and auto-scaling for high availability and
performance.
o Use Amazon S3 for static asset storage.
o Use Amazon EC2 or similar services for containerized deployment.
5. Security
• Authentication:
o Implement JWT (JSON Web Token) for user session security.
o Explore OAuth2 protocols for secure authorization.
• Data Security:
o Secure sensitive data in transit and at rest.
o Learn best practices for handling user data securely.
6. Application Flow
• Understand the end-to-end flow of data:
o Frontend:
▪ User interactions trigger API calls.
▪ Frontend dynamically updates UI with data from backend APIs.
o Backend:
▪ API requests are processed by Spring Boot microservices.
▪ Data is fetched or updated in MySQL or MongoDB.
7. Project Deliverables
• A fully functional web application with:
o User authentication and authorization.
o Core Pages and additional capabilities.
o 3rd party app integration.
• Complete documentation including:
o API specifications.
o Database schema.
o Deployment instructions.
8. Tools to Explore
• React + Vite Developer Tools (browser extension for debugging React apps).
• Postman or Insomnia (for testing APIs).
• Spring Boot Framework for backend development.
• MySQL Workbench (for database management).
• AWS Management Console (for deploying and monitoring cloud resources).
