HR management API

A REST API for managing employees, built with Spring Boot and tested with JUnit.

The problem

I wanted a complete backend project that followed the practices of a real team: separate layers, validation, tests and documentation.

What I did

Full CRUD with Spring Data JPA on MySQL.
Validation, centralised error handling and JUnit tests.
Modular architecture with Maven and DTOs.
API documentation with Swagger.
