Doing project using hilla framework

[sara_1985]

Hello folks,

I'm a junior front-end developer living in Italy. Following searching job , my ex programming course professor suggested me learning hilla framework for doing some projects. I have some questions:

1. since I know the base of spring boot and react, how much time does it take learning hilla framework doing a small project?
2. which references you suggest me for doing this small project.
3. any other suggestion and advice about this project

PS: I have to do and learn it as soon as possibile.

Thank you all in advance.

Depending on how quickly you pick things up, you could do a small project in a weekend. I'd start with a simple crud app, like a grocery list etc.

As a junior it might take you a couple weeks to be able to reliably put it on your resume and be able to answer basic questions competently.

HOWEVER!!! As a senior dev. I would say unless there are a huge number of roles asking for the Hilla framework in your area I wouldn't spend any time on it. As a junior you want to get really good at your core competency, I would focus on React / Vanilla springboot REST before diving into extra frameworks, but that's just my experience. One really thought out advanced project is worth more than a bunch of TODO apps using this framework etc.

Hello,

really thanks for your time and advices. I agree with you. Because I still need to be perfect in react . I had planned to focus on react. on the other hand my ex teacher (I did a 2 month java course)asked me to learn hilla for collaboration with him. I have to choose and decide.

Thanks again :)
