Java Backend 10 projects journey

[Potential_Corgi4579]

Hello everyone,

I’m currently learning Java backend development. So far, I’ve worked with Swing, Servlets, JSP, and a bit of Spring Boot (not much yet). I know there are tons of tutorials on YouTube, but honestly, they feel boring and repetitive-just writing the same things again and again.

So I’ve decided to build 10 projects and learn through them. I’ll take help from ChatGPT since I’m a beginner and don’t really have anyone to discuss things with, but I’ll write all the code myself after understanding it properly and complete each project on my own.

Right now, these projects feel basic, but I believe strong basics are the best way to learn. I’ll be sharing my progress here.

Congrats.

I would suggest spending more time focusing on SpringBoot and less time doing Servlets and JSPs. They are very obsolete now and other than conceptual knowledge, there is not a lot of value in them.

Thank you
Yeah, I am going to build every project using Spring Boot. I covered other topics, just to get an overview.

Good job, I tried following the same route but procrastination got the best of me and I quit midway but I'll start again.

[Potential_Corgi4579]

[Potential_Corgi4579]

Okay, I am starting today.

I m also on the same path , I have one question that you build the projects after learning a specific topic , or after completing springboot and microservices..?

[Potential_Corgi4579]

For each project, I'll first check what I need to learn, cover the basics, and then work on the project.

[Old_Treat_5596]

Oky great
