The project

Employee Management REST API

Build a clean, layered backend that looks and feels like a real project. We will move from an empty Spring Initializr project to tested API endpoints.

  • CRUD endpoints with meaningful HTTP responses
  • PostgreSQL integration with Spring Data JPA
  • Validation and consistent exception handling
  • Postman and Swagger API testing
