This serves for learning purposes as i try to understand how spring boot and hibernate work together.

I used H2 in-memory database for that purpose.

Dependencies/tools used

• spring boot jpa
• hibernate
• h2
• maven

Initializer

The beauty with spring boot is that it comes to simplify configuration of apps hence giving the developer much more time to concentrate onto the business logic. This can be achieved by using the spring initializer

Running the application

• Clone the application

  • You can run the spring boot app by typing the following command - mvn spring-boot:run

  • You can also package the application in the form of a jar file and then run it like so - mvn package
