Description of my final project

Project Name: Better Reads

Better Reads is a social media application where users can keep track of books in their bookshelves, leave book reviews on books they've read, and create or join book club communities. Technologies implemented in the full stack application built include Java Spring Boot for the main application, the Thymeleaf templating engine for HTML views, jQuery for Javascript utility, and MySQL for back end storage. Book data is accessed using JavaScript fetch API calls to the Google Books and New York Times Books APIs, while email functionality is reliant on the Mailgun email API.
