Welcome to Book Social Network, a full-stack web application that allows users to manage their book collections and interact with a community of book enthusiasts. This project is based on the tutorial series by Ali Bouali on YouTube.
Book Social Network provides users with features such as user registration, secure email validation, book management (creation, updating, sharing, and archiving), book borrowing with availability checks, book return functionality, and approval of book returns. The application ensures security using JWT tokens and follows REST API best practices. The backend is built with Spring Boot 3 and Spring Security 6, while the frontend is developed using Angular with Bootstrap for styling.
