  1. AI-Powered Web Vulnerability Scanner: Build It From Scratch

    Every web application has security headers, cookies, TLS configurations, and CORS policies that need to be correct. Most teams find out they're wrong only after a penetration test — or worse, after an incident. This book shows you how to build a scanner that catches these issues automatically. You'll create a Python CLI tool that uses Hurl (declarative HTTP testing) to assert security properties, SSLyze to validate TLS protocol versions, and AI to generate specific remediation for every failure it finds. The output: structured JSON reports, visual HTML dashboards, and AI-generated security posture assessments. **What you'll build:** - 9 declarative Hurl security test files (headers, cookies, CORS, HSTS, CSP, CSRF, redirects, TLS) - A preprocessor that handles domain substitution and authentication - An output parser with built-in remediation guidance for every test - A TLS scanner validating SSL 2.0/3.0 disabled and TLS 1.2/1.3 enabled - An AI analyzer that generates context-specific fixes using Ollama, OpenAI, or Bedrock - An HTML reporter with dark-themed visual dashboards - Docker multi-architecture deployment - CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions **Who this is for:** - Developers who want security checks before deploying - DevSecOps engineers building CI/CD security gates - Penetration testers who need quick baseline assessments - Security students learning web vulnerability concepts hands-on - Platform teams enforcing security standards across services Every failure includes: what was expected, what was received, why it matters, how to fix it, and a documentation link. AI adds domain-specific code examples on top.

  5. Building REST APIs with Spring Boot 4.0
    Building REST APIs with Spring Boot 4.0
    Practical and code-first learning for Java developers to build, test and deploy applications using Java 21
    GitforGits | Asian Publishing House

    What you've got here is a hands-on walkthrough of Spring Boot 4.0, where we'll build a single application from start to finish, using the command line and then packaging it as a JAR at the end. Each chapter adds one real capability, like a REST endpoint, a database, an error handler, a security layer or a test suite. Each chapter gets straight into the code, and you can run, modify and break it to see what happens.There's even a dedicated troubleshooting chapter at the end that deals with the exact errors beginners actually encounter in practice, not just hypothetical ones.

  6. Laravel 12 Cookbook, Second Edition
    Laravel 12 Cookbook, Second Edition
    Build, secure, and scale your apps with solutions across authentication, routing, security, media, APIs, queues, scheduling and automation
    GitforGits | Asian Publishing House

    I'd say Laravel 12 is a pretty mature and confident framework. It's ditched old habits, tweaked its bootstrap configuration, given its scheduler a modern makeover, and adopted a filesystem-first approach to media management. PHP 8.5 has some great new features that make our code cleaner and clearer. So, when you put these two together, you've basically got the best version of the Laravel ecosystem there's ever been.

    Create Flutter widgets dynamically with a REST API in Laravel or Django
    Create a REST API (JSON) with Laravel and PHP or Django and Python - connect it to an iOS and Android app with Dart
    Andrés Cruz Yoris

    In this book, you won't just learn to create static screens; you will learn to build dynamic interfaces (Server-Driven UI). We will start with layout in Flutter, move through the robust construction of APIs and models using Laravel and Django, and finish by implementing a "Widget Mix" so the backend dictates how the app looks. By the end, you will have built a system where you can update your users' UI in real-time, without having to wait for app store approvals. This is the solid foundation you need to develop scalable and modern applications.
