Building a Full-Featured Demo with webforJ and Spring Boot

In my time working with documentation and coding for customers I have built quite the number of demo apps myself, so by now I know what the shortcuts look like. The dataset is always small, with authentication and advanced features "coming soon" or hardcoded in instead of properly implemented. Filtering works fast, because coincidentally there are only five rows to filter. All of that isn't to say those demos are bad, after all they serve their purpose, but I wanted to see how efficiently I could build a demo that doesn't cut corners while still being small and easy to understand.

The webforJ Bookstore is my attempt at that. It's a book inventory manager built on webforJ and Spring Boot with live table filtering, colored genre chips, a data-bound edit drawer, and Spring Security handling who can do what. This post covers the pieces I found most worth writing about.
