Today I focused on getting comfortable with @GetMapping in Spring Boot! π
π§ What I practiced:
β
Creating multiple @GetMapping endpoints
β
Returning simple strings and objects as JSON responses
β
Using @PathVariable and @RequestParam to handle dynamic input
β
Tested all routes using Postman for better understanding
π What is @GetMapping?
@GetMapping is a Spring annotation used to handle HTTP GET requests. Itβs typically used to retrieve data from the server, such as lists, single items, or any response based on query/path parameters.
π‘ Learning how to serve data using GET requests has helped me understand the basics of how APIs work behind the scenes.
This sets the foundation for more complex operations like POST, PUT, and DELETE.
Every small step is taking me closer to building complete REST APIs! π οΈπ»
