This project is a technical portfolio designed to showcase Wesley's skills and knowledge in full-stack cloud development. It features a responsive frontend built with Angular and a robust backend powered by Java, demonstrating a complete, end-to-end application architecture.
The primary goal of this repository is to serve as a live demonstration of full-stack development capabilities, covering everything from the user interface to database persistence.
The user interface was initially a static page built with simple HTML and CSS. It has been completely refactored into a dynamic and modern single-page application (SPA) using the Angular framework. This conversion highlights the ability to modernize legacy web pages and build scalable frontend solutions.
The frontend communicates with a backend system built entirely in Java. The backend architecture is designed with clear separation of concerns and includes:
- Facade Layer: A Facade design pattern is used as the primary entry point for the frontend, simplifying communication and decoupling the client from the complex internal logic.
- Service/Intermediate Layer: This layer contains the core business logic of the application.
- Persistence Layer: Responsible for all database interactions, connecting to a PostgreSQL database to store and retrieve data.
This multi-layered Java backend demonstrates a solid understanding of enterprise application design and database connectivity.
This project was generated using Angular CLI version 20.2.2.
To start a local development server, run:
ng serveOnce the server is running, open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The application will automatically reload whenever you modify any of the source files.
Angular CLI includes powerful code scaffolding tools. To generate a new component, run:
ng generate component component-nameFor a complete list of available schematics (such as components, directives, or pipes), run:
ng generate --helpTo build the project run:
ng buildThis will compile your project and store the build artifacts in the dist/ directory. By default, the production build optimizes your application for performance and speed.
To execute unit tests with the Karma test runner, use the following command:
ng testFor end-to-end (e2e) testing, run:
ng e2eAngular CLI does not come with an end-to-end testing framework by default. You can choose one that suits your needs.
