In this video, I implemented a custom API response structure in a Spring Boot backend project.
I explained why returning raw entities is not recommended in real-world applications and how to build a clean, consistent API response using a generic response wrapper and ResponseEntity.
Topics covered in this video:
• Why we need a custom API response structure
• Difference between ResponseEntity and custom response classes
• How to design a generic API response using Generic T
• Proper HTTP status codes for REST APIs
• Clean controller-level response handling
• Best practices followed in professional backend projects
This approach improves API readability, consistency, and client-side integration.
📌 Backend Stack:
Spring Boot • Spring Data JPA • PostgreSQL
