Training and Placement Management System (Minimal)

This is a minimal, simple implementation of the Training & Placement Management System requested. It uses:

• Spring Boot (backend)
• Spring Data JPA (persistence)
• MySQL (database)
• Static frontend files (HTML/CSS/JS) stored under src/main/resources/static as requested.

What you get

• Simple entities: Student, Company, JobApplication
• Basic form handlers to register students/companies and to apply for jobs
• Static pages: index.html, student.html, company.html, admin.html under src/main/resources/static

How to run

1. Install Java 11 (or set java.version in pom.xml to match your installed JDK).

2. Install MySQL and create a database (example):

   CREATE DATABASE placement_db;

3. Update DB credentials in src/main/resources/application.properties (username/password).

4. From project root run:

   mvn spring-boot:run

   or build jar then run:

   mvn package java -jar target/placement-system-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

5. Open browser to http://localhost:8080/

Sample accounts created at startup (for demo):

• admin / admin (ADMIN)
• student / student (STUDENT)
• company / company (COMPANY)

Authentication and security

• This project now integrates Spring Security. Passwords are stored hashed (BCrypt) but you can log in using the plaintext credentials above (they are encoded on startup).
• The login page is at /login. Spring Security handles authentication and redirects users by role.

Notes and next steps

• This is intentionally minimal and simple: authentication is simple and for demo only (no password hashing). Use caution.
• The project now includes resume upload (stored to local uploads/), CSV export for admin, and simple role-based login.

Admin CSV export: http://localhost:8080/admin/export/students.csv (must be logged in as ADMIN)

Resume upload: Student profile form allows uploading a PDF resume; uploads are saved to uploads/ and can be downloaded via admin/company after login.

If you want, I can:

• Improve authentication (add Spring Security and hashed passwords)
• Add resume file validation and virus scanning (demo only)
• Add better UI and pagination for lists
