From CRUD to Hypermedia APIs with Spring (RU)

on YouTube ↗49m

" summary

Builds a working currency classifieds API (H2 + JPA + Gradle) that seeds 100 random ads and exposes CRUD plus business actions (publish, expire) as separate endpoints, then replaces client-side URL knowledge with hypermedia links generated via Spring Data REST and Spring HATEOAS. Uses a resource processor and entityLinks to add publish/expire/update/delete relations; demos via browser and Postman confirm lifecycle transitions and searches. Notes: ~43% of APIs remain URI-driven and >40% of developers want to add hypermedia.
