Todo API — Java Clean Architecture

A RESTful To-Do list API built with Java, following Clean Architecture principles with an in-memory database. Uses only the JDK built-in HTTP server (no external dependencies).

Architecture

src/
├── entities/        Pure domain model (Todo)
├── interfaces/      Repository contract
├── usecases/        Business logic (CRUD)
├── infrastructure/  In-memory repository
└── adapters/        HTTP handlers

Each layer has a single responsibility:

Layer	Responsibility
entities/	Pure domain model (Todo)
interfaces/	Repository contract
usecases/	Business logic (CRUD)
infrastructure/	In-memory repository
adapters/	HTTP handlers

API Endpoints
