In this course we will learn to write server side web applications in Java. Jakarta Web Profile 9.0 is the latest in a long line of JEE (preveiously J2EE) specifications that cover server side, or enterprise, Java developemnt. This course covers thw Jakarta Web Profile, and that web profile specifies how Servlets, Jakarta Server Pages (JSP) and other Java web technologies work. Why are these fundamentals important? Well, because they underpin many of the Java web frameworks that exist today such as Spring MVC. For this course you will write an MVC style application which will use a Servlet as it's main controller, that means you will understand how to write and deploy servlets and.
