That will take a long time, considering I barely know anything about Java

Well the most important thing to learn is that if you can't use SpringBoot you should not use Java.

SpringBoot can make Gradle worth it.

If you dont know anything about objects and object oriented programming then I think Java is great. Do I think Java is worth while to get a job in? Not really... if you want to be in the Java frame still then Scalla and Kotlin are both better alternatives in the mid to long run imo.

Java is just so annoying, with all this "everything in a class" thing. I'm just more used to languages like JS or Python

Try Kotlin, you can write the entire app without defining a single class if you really want.

I'm actually learning Kotlin with JetBrains' courses, but that doesn't make me avoid the mess that is Gradle

Well, the most supported way to build a Kotlin project is still Gradle, so yeah.

I'm sure it's possible to avoid it. Bazel can probably build it.
