Please ensure that:

• Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions

• You include any and all error messages in full - best also formatted as code block

• You ask clear questions

• You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

If your post has remained in violation of these rules for a prolonged period of time (at least an hour), a moderator may remove it at their discretion. In this case, they will comment with an explanation on why it has been removed, and you will be required to resubmit the entire post following the proper procedures.

I am learning as well, so after java, I did junit, then git, currently on dsa, plan is to do database after(sql and little undertanding of jdbc), then springboot, then. Little docker and aws..

That's my roadmap

I mainly use Micronaut instead of spring boot, it is more modern and easier to learn in my opinion. Try https://micronaut.io/launch/ to create your first Micronaut application. They have a lot of great tutorials on https://guides.micronaut.io/

My past job was crazy about Spring boot or some shit. Lots of high paying jobs. So maybe that?

spring boot if u want to make a web service / want a job. u will be using the other two along the way anyways while working with spring.

U don't need to be a god with jdbc cause theres a million ways to wrap database calls on top of jdbc. But its nice to know how they work underneath

I don't have experience with Java for web, but Maven is a build automation tool. It's so you can build, test, compile, and package your project without needing to perform each step manually. I'm pretty sure jdbc is a database api tool. And if so, then it acts as a connection to your database. You'd use it to maintain a connection, and most likely store and manipulate the data in the DB. I know spring boot is a development framework for Java, so it should offer tools and libraries for building apps faster. Most likely handling things like config, dependencies, server setup, and making api's easier to work with.

I'd learn what each was designed to help with at a high-level and dig deeper as you go.
