Spring Boot 4 and Framework 7: Mastering Full-Stack Java for Cross-Platform App Development Through Clear Tutorials and Practical Exercises

By SHAWN METTLE

Master modern full-stack Java mobile development with Spring Boot 4 & Framework 7 - a hands-on, project-driven guide that bridges enterprise Java backends and native-looking mobile frontends. Written for experienced Java developers who need to build production-grade, cross-platform mobile applications without abandoning the JVM, this book walks you through a single, real-world project - the Resilient Mobile Catalog - and shows how to design, secure, test and deploy a modern headless application using Spring Boot 4 (Spring Framework 7) and Framework7 + Vue.js.

What you'll get:

A practical, step-by-step build of a production-ready backend using Spring Boot 4: Java 25 baseline, Jakarta EE 11, Spring Framework 7 features, auto-configuration, profiles, transactions, and Spring Data JPA.

Modern concurrency and performance: learn Project Loom / virtual threads, how to design for high concurrency, and produce GraalVM native images for millisecond cold-start serverless deployments.

Robust API design and resilience: versioned REST APIs, native resilience patterns (retries, fallbacks), observability with OpenTelemetry, and practical chaos testing.

Mobile-first frontend with Framework7 + Vue.js: PWA setup, F7 components, Pinia state management, offline & skeleton UI patterns, optimistic UI, and hybrid packaging with Capacitor.

Production concerns covered: JWT security, RBAC, Spring Security integration, comprehensive testing (unit, integration, E2E with Playwright), Dockerizing native images, and CI/CD-friendly build practices.

Why this book
If you're a backend Java engineer who wants to own the end-to-end stack - ship mobile apps that feel native while keeping server logic in Java - this book shows you exactly how to do that without learning two separate ecosystems. No fluff, no "Hello World" - just practical recipes, production patterns, and exercises that mirror real engineering constraints (resilience, security, performance, and maintainability).

Who should buy it

Java backend developers moving into mobile or full-stack roles

Architects designing headless mobile architectures and microservices

Engineers optimizing Java services for serverless and native image deployment

Teams building PWAs or hybrid mobile apps that must mimic native UX

Includes: full code examples, practical exercises, and step-by-step deployment guidance so you can move from prototype to production with confidence.
