Can you make a crash course on Microservices too ? Really love to learn from your experience and way of explaining things. You really inspire me to teach others. Thank you for being there Mr. Vega.

[@connor8875]

Finally! Finally a video that explains this without ramming meaningless jargon down my ears 😁 You've got yourself a new subscriber!

[@ddarkodev2923]

Thank you, Dan!! So helpful 💪

[@christopherreif3624]

I absolutely love your videos, please don’t stop making!

[@petersteel7735]

Thank you Dan! Quality content!!!

[@moonly3781]

Finally!!! Thank you, Dan. You're the best✌

[@flow_987]

Incredibly illuminating. Thank you!

[@samarthurs8000]

As always, very valuable content for free. Much Appreciated!

[@crillin570]

Thanks Dan, these are very helpful.👍

[@nikhilxxsharma]

This is gold, brilliant Dan, you are amazing.

[@itsjaylogan]

Thank you so much. I’m just getting started with Spring and Spring Boot and this video helped me confirm some things I suspected! I will start your Spring training video 🎉

[@TheSeTrous]

This is an ABSOLUTE banger Finally i have no misunderstandings on beans, components and even spring container

[@rapasebastian5678]

Great content Dan! I was pretty familiar with all the concepts mentioned here, still the content was refreshing. Love the way you dive into things. Keep it up!

[@codingwithraphael]

You are a true hero Dan!! You’ve just breakdown it so understandable that I’m very impressive.. thank you thank you

[@shreypatel9379]

This is THE explanation. Like you explained everything in a much simpler way than all the other sources I have referred to. Thanks for such a wonderful tutorial!

[@yasminaitmaksene5230]

Thank's a lot ! Your explanations really helped me to understand how Spring Beans work :D

[@israelduarte1326]

Thank you for the video!

[@xyvadimxy]

It's really helpful explanation. Thanks Dan!

[@libraniel]

You're great Dan, thank you and happy coding! 😃

[@rajkumarvb5197]

Thanks Dan, it was helpful!

[@donglaizhang7895]

Hi Dan, this is fantastic!! A lot of of these detailed information is hard to be found easily. With most of the tutorials and examples online, they only tell you what/how to do, but not why. Thank you!!

[@DanVega]

I feel the same way and I am often trying to answer the questions that I have as well. Really glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the kind words.

[@ornelfranck]

Nicely done!

[@random-characters4162]

Very good and dense content! Thx

[@meysam.85]

Thanks @dan, i find it useful. Thanks

[@ravipandey29]

Thanks , it is really helpful.

[@meilyn22]

Thank you. Best explanation. I've been hearing those terms and using them, but I never took the time to understand what they mean. Beans put methods in the application context, mostly used with the @Configuration annotation. @Component put classes into the application context. You are awesome!

[@peachezprogramming]

Great video. Thanks for making!

[@DanVega]

Thanks for watching

[@codex8797]

Thank you, really helped

[@zakariyaechmaili5647]

Thanks ❤️

[@kay2care]

Nice job!

[@gauthamfz19]

Awesome explanation!

[@DanVega]

Thank you!

[@davemerkury]

Dan! Thank you for your content! It helps me to understand Springboot a lot better! Would you recommend goign through the documentation? I always seem to have trouble with creating queries to retrieve data from mysql.

[@brayanmnz]

Nice shirt, I got mine from Devnexus!

[@Dina-Barbur]

thank you, Dan! would you please tell about @component vs @repository. Both annotations are used in infrastructure layer of any REST app (storage or repository packages). I'm slightly confused by such diversity.

[@MrRexxarHell]

Dude, you explain it so well, that when I have questions about Spring, I go to your channel. Thanks for your work!

[@myst.youtube]

no joke this tutorial of bean and component 100% clear than water.

[@mehnaazmohiuddin]

Very Cool video @Dan ! For anyone who can't see spring plugin, Spring plugin is available in Ultimate Edition , not the free one.

[@Curiosidades-ki2oi]

Which theme are you using in your IntelliJ?

[@KennethKousen]

Nice job. A couple of quick comments: 1. I had no idea that IntellIJ had a Spring view. Seems obvious in retrospect, but thanks for that. 2. I'm surprised you didn't autowire the `RestTemplateBuilder` into the `@Bean` method rather than instantiate it yourself. The builder is available in the application context already, so make it an argument to your configuration method and it'll be autowired in automatically. 3. Even though autowiring works as long as you have only a single constructor in a class, I usually add `@Autowired` anyway, partly as documentation, and partly as protection in case someone else adds a default constructor, at which point the automatic autowiring wouldn't work any more. Just a thought. :)

[@DineshkumarPuli]

Wow! It is Ken! 😮

[@KennethKousen]

@@DineshkumarPuli Snicker. No, it's Dan :⁠-⁠)

[@francogiulianopertile279]

Good Tutorial

[@shashanksurekhapapde6143]

Nice video ! how do i get spring in tool window . Is it only on ultimate edition ?

[@ningw5169]

Hey Dan what's the theme you are using?

[@mlensment]

Can you cover spring beans and concurrency?

[@iterator]

Thanks for the great content! Could you share the font you're using?

[@fatihkobacik]

i think it's cascadia-code font of microsoft

[@FranklyTerrible]

Not going to lie, this example about beans only confused me more. How does Spring make that vague connection to the Resttemplate method? That seems like dark magic to me...

[@user-zw3kc8qd1z]

I have been working on Spring projects and gathered some valuable knowledge! Spring basically has the so-called IoC container, which is associated with the dependency injection system it has been integrated with. In simple words, instead of trying to make new objects with the keyword "new" like "new User();", Spring will automatically inject this dependency for you. This can be done in 3 ways: through field, constructor or setter injection. That's it. Also, by default, the instances provided by spring are singleton, namely, only one instance is provided for the entire application context, which of course can be changed if you want.

[@crlychar]

Thak you for the tutorial. I have a question. How can i get the same UI of the Intellij IDEA like yours?

[@FredrikRambris]

How about factories? Is there a way to register a factory that will return a bean when needed. Say a bean with generics. Is there such a way to easily register a bean factory?

[@adityavardhanagarwal495]

Can you create a spring security crash course as well please ?

[@christopherreif3624]

My goodness yes! This would be so helpful.

[@ypathan420]

He has a playlist on spring security

[@santiagomorales9129]

also he recommended Laur Spilca on that particular topic

[@keithlockey7129]

Hi, I like your videos. I found a mistake on your Recent Articles page on your blog. You put "I like to write about anything thta I am currently working or something new that interests me." You misspelled the word "that". Thanks.

[@enesb4797]

should we not use "new" keyword in classes even if they are just regular classes and not beans or components? let's say I have a helper class for math operations, shouldn't I use "new" keyword in its dependencies? (since you said you should stay away from using "new" keyword 6:54)

[@anyname8803]

Hello Dan, defining beans with @Bean annotation isn't truly an inversion of control, since we are returning a new bean explicitly with the "new" keyword like so: @Bean public SomeObject myBean(){ return NEW SomeObject() } Please correct my understanding. Thanks

[@mzlobecki]

what is the shortcut for emoji please? 😄

[@kyleryxn]

I like this video, but I think you cold update it with more clarification on best use cases for each. Like, when is it better to use @Component vs. @Bean?

[@meilyn22]

He literally explained it in this video. It's not rocket science.

[@Keteku.]

Why do you use a CommandLineRunner instead of just running System.out.println()

[@USONOFAV]

Why does @Bean doesn't work if you are returning a Collection type and you have to use @Resource?

[@anon3746]

Wait why don't we just make all the methods in Controler and Service static and then we don't need beans for them? I mean why even initialize a Controller class?

[@annyeong987]

You didn't show how to get that spring view tool

[@qzf4928]

我不会英语，但是通过字幕我学习的很慢但是我会坚持的

[@hypekg5719]

What's wrong with your camera? Adjust the focus before recording a video

[@otaxhu8021]

spring boot and all that thing of beans are bullshit dude it isn't declarative, I builded an application with jax-rs and it hasn't all this "magic things" of the spring runtime handling all the instances in the limbo, jax-rs (now called jakarta-rs) gives you more freedom.
