Full-Stack Mini Project cleanup

I have several mini projects in motion and a growing to-do list across a Spring Boot back-end and Angular / React front-ends. The most urgent item is fleshing out clean, well-documented REST APIs in Spring Boot that feed the existing UI layers. Typical tasks include defining entities, repositories and service classes, wiring controllers, mapping DTOs, validating input, and writing unit tests. As soon as an endpoint is stable, it needs to be consumed by either the Angular or React interface with a responsive, polished user experience. The codebase lives in Git; each feature is tracked in small Jira tickets so the scope stays tight. After completing a ticket, simply open a pull request, add Swagger or Postman collections for quick testing, and walk me through the changes on a short call. GraphQL, Kafka, and AWS sit on the roadmap for later phases, so prior exposure to those tools will definitely help when we begin integrating messaging and cloud deployment. Deliverables per ticket • Spring Boot REST endpoint(s) fully functional and tested • Updated Angular or React components hooked to those endpoints • Swagger / Postman documentation for the new API surface • JUnit / Mockito back-end tests and front-end test coverage where applicable • Brief hand-off notes explaining design decisions Acceptance criteria: Maven build passes, all tests are green, the UI compiles without warnings, and each endpoint returns the expected payload as specified in the ticket. Work kicks off immediately, with milestones scoped small so progress is visible and feedback is fast.
