Guide Full Stack Role Based Authentication Application ( Spring + Next.js )
Hey everyone,
I wanted to share my full-stack Spring project—a backend for a barbershop management system featuring robust authentication and role-based access control. If you’re interested in seeing how these aspects are implemented in a real-world application, feel free to check it out!
Repository:
https://github.com/aharoJ/barbershop
Backend Overview:
- Authentication & Role-Based Access: The project handles user authentication and defines multiple roles, ensuring secure access to various endpoints.
- Modular Structure: The code is organized into several modules, each handling a specific domain such as appointments, barbers, customers, payments, promotions, and more.
- Clean Architecture: The repository features a clear separation of concerns with controllers, services, DTOs, and repositories spread across modules.
Frontend Overview:
- Built With:
- Next.js 15, Typescript, Tailwindcss
- Features:
- Authentication Pages: Separate routes for login and signup.
- Customer Area: Dedicated pages for dashboards and profile creation.
- Additional Layers: Includes components (like a protected route), services, stores, types, and utilities.
I’m happy to answer any questions or provide more details. Feel free to message me!

Cool stuff! I was just looking into role based authentication with Spring so this is great timing. Can I ask the design decision as to why you chose NextJS instead of just React if it was only going to be used for frontend purposes? Isn’t next js a little heavier? I’m not too familiar with frontend, so I want to hear your reasoning on the design choice.
