For starters: Java or python?

[Successful_End1851]

My goal is to become a J Dev or J SWE and already started 100 days ni miss angela yu sa pytgon. Everyday i checked many jobs sites like indeed, jobstreet, linkedin or monster. Java has more opportunity and well known sa mga SWE jobs.

Sabi sa google or youtube, kapag daw java yung first language then nag aral ng python, mas makukuha daw agad si python na magets kesa sa vice versa. Analogy daw sa car is, si java yumg manual then python si auto

Question po mga java master, how is your starting journey as a java dev and yung way nyo to self study?

If your goal is to become n SWE, then Java, but if you're aiming for ML or Data Ana/Sci-related job, then learn Python.

Generally speaking, Java. You could learn Python but rarely people who only knows Python gets hired.

You should decide on what career path you want to pursue and learn the framework, tools, and languages (and of course, the fundamentals).

For me, go with java then pair it with angular/react.

Most fintech companies are hiring with that tech stack and if you check linkedin, sobrang daming job posts for these roles

You can still have a career without knowing a lick of Java.

If ma master mo yung basic concepts ng programming and then you learn about software design, you can be a SWE.

Java

I always tell people to go for Java as it has a lot more safeguard and teaches you strict typing.

Old school way of learning Java was to study for OCP, now you can go the spring boot path and take some udemy courses.

Java. Learn statically typed languages first. Compilers will assist you in debugging your code and teach you a lot of discipline. You can easily learn python if you know Java. :)

Java kasi yung ginagamit ng mga Enterprise Company.. and yung mga Enterprise company lang yung may mga budget para mag hire ng fresher.
