Romanian Football Legends

June 20, 2025

Romanian Football Legends is an app which offers stats about the romanian legendary football players.

The app is divided in 2 main parts:

  • Backend (Spring Boot(3.5.3) and Java): Serves a REST API(Representational State Transfer API) which manages the data about the players. Supports simple interogations for listing and searching players based on different parameters(name, position, etc.)

  • Frontend (React and JavaScript): The user interface allows users to navigate through the list of players, search in the database and see stats about each player. Includes cool little animations made in CSS(Cascading Style Sheets)

Key Points:

  • Complete listing of players.
  • Dynamic update when typing in the search bar
  • Responsive and accesible design
  • Backend configured for cross-origin communication(CORS)
  • The players data was obtained with a python scraper scraper.py which fetches data from a website into a csv table, then the data from the csv is sent to the DB.
