Product Management Application

This is a simple web application for managing products. It provides a user-friendly interface for adding, editing, and deleting products.

Features

• Add Product: Users can add a new product by entering its name and price. The product will be immediately displayed in the product list.
• Edit Product: Users can edit the name and price of existing products. Clicking the "Edit" button opens a modal with fields for editing the product details.
• Delete Product: Users can delete products from the list. A confirmation dialog is displayed before deleting the product.
• Interactive Interface: All actions can be performed directly through the web interface without page reloads. The interface is responsive and works well on both desktop and mobile devices.
• Data Persistence: Product data is stored in a database, ensuring that added products persist even after restarting the application.

Technologies Used

• Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript
• Backend: Spring Boot
• Database: MySQL (or any other supported by Spring Data JPA)
• Other: Thymeleaf (for server-side templating)

Key Learnings

• Spring Boot: This project provided hands-on experience with building a web application using Spring Boot, including setting up controllers, services, and repositories.
• Database Integration: I learned how to integrate a database (MySQL in this case) with a Spring Boot application using Spring Data JPA for seamless data access and manipulation.
• Frontend Development: While basic, this project helped me practice frontend development skills such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as well as working with responsive layouts.
• User Interaction: Implementing features like adding, editing, and deleting products enhanced my understanding of user interaction and event handling in web applications.

Key Moments
