Basic Full Stack App with Spring Boot, React, and MySQL, all running in Docker containers.

The goal of this project is to demonstrate how Docker can be used to run a full stack application, helping to avoid the "works on my computer" problem, and also to make it easier to test a full stack application without having to install all the dependencies or complex configurations.

The app is a simple full stack application that saves a user's name and email address to a MySQL database.The backend is a Spring Boot application that exposes a REST API. The frontend is a React application that uses the backend API to save and retrieve data from the database.

• Programming Language: Java, JavaScript
• Frameworks: Spring Boot, React
• Database: MySQL
• Database Management: phpMyAdmin
• Containerization: Docker
• Dev Environment: VSCode with dev containers in Zorin OS

You need to have installed Docker, the most easy way to install it is using the Docker Desktop application.

1. Clone this repository and enter the folder

git clone [email protected]:jhordyess/dockerized-spring-react-mysql.git

2. Create a .env file in the root folder by copying the example from the .env.example file.

3. Then, run the following command:

5. To remove the containers, use the following commands:

make clean

# If you don't have 'make' installed, use:
docker compose down

Take note that this production configuration is just for testing purposes, and maybe need some changes to be used in a real production environment.

You can use the VSCode dev containers to run the project in a containerized environment.

You need to have installed Docker and VSCode, and the Dev Containers extension.

git clone [email protected]:jhordyess/dockerized-spring-react-mysql.git

2. Open the project in VSCode

code dockerized-spring-react-mysql

3. Create a .env file in the root folder by copying the example from the .env.example file.

4. Open the integrated terminal (Ctrl+Shift+`) and run the following command:
