• Java Development Kit (JDK) 8 or higher
• Maven
• An IDE with Spring Boot support (IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, VS Code, etc.)

---

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/iPlus200/CRUD.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd CRUD

3. Build the project using Maven:

   mvn clean install

Usage

To run the application:

mvn spring-boot:run

By default, the application will start on port 8080. You can interact with the CRUD API endpoints using tools such as Postman, curl, or via a browser (where applicable).

API Endpoints

Here’s an example set of endpoints the application might expose. Adjust paths, request/response schemas according to your code.

Operation	HTTP Method	URL	Description
Create	POST	/items	Create a new record
Read All	GET	/items	Get all records
Read One	GET	/items/{id}	Get a specific record
Update	PUT / PATCH	/items/{id}	Update a specific record
Delete	DELETE	/items/{id}	Delete a specific record

Note: Replace /items with your actual entity path (e.g., /users, /products) as defined in your controllers.
