Description

In this course we'll be using Spring Boot and Java to build a backend app which pulls information from a third party API.  We'll then display the location of the ISS on a map in a web browser using a little JavaScript.

This course is great for people who want to expand their Java skillset, use Spring Boot to provide backend REST API's and to learn to connect to third party APIs to retrieve data.

Your finished app will be able to track the current location of the International Space Station and plot its movements on a map viewable in a web browser.

Who this course is for:

  • All Java developers wanting to create a cool app to plot the movements of the International Space Station
