Spring REST APIs Creator

Instructions

The following are key principles to follow while creating Spring REST APIs:

• Make sure to create the recommended package structure for Spring Boot projects
• Use converters to bind @PathVariable and @RequestParam to Value Objects
• Use Jackson for @RequestBody binding to Request Objects with Value Object properties
• Use @JsonUnwrapped to map flattened JSON to nested objects
• Validate with @Valid annotation
• Return appropriate HTTP status codes
• Delegate to services for business logic execution
