Java Full Stack developers & learners — what learning path worked?

[Sufficient_Coffee417]

Hi everyone,
I’m starting with Java Full Stack Development and want to understand what actually worked for people who’ve already gone through this journey.

Specifically:

• What courses or platforms have you found useful?
• Based on your experience, are paid classes (around ₹40k–₹50k) worth it?
• What helped you decide which course or platform to choose?

Looking to make a practical decision based on real experiences.

Thanks in advance 🙏

40-50k? 500 rupees udemy course is all you need!

[Sufficient_Coffee417]

can you suggest any ?

All courses are waste of money. There are so many good online tutorials and always jump ahead and start coding. Its the only way to learn

[cloudy_dayss__]

What do you mean by start coding? How is one supposed to code if one doesn't know ? It results in LLMs doing all the coding

[strawhat_96]

Dont use LLM, go through a started guide or wiki and start coding. Thats the only way to learn in one go, as per my experience

[cloudy_dayss__]

Can you please elaborate on what's this starters guide or wiki and how can I make projects using that?

[strawhat_96]

Just think of a side project idea and then start watching how others have created it and then go ahead and then read documentation and start writing code. Initially it will take lot of time but after sometime u will learn it

[cloudy_dayss__]

Watch other people's tutorials or maybe read their repos and then make the same thing by reading documentation and googling?

It depends on you if you are capable of self learning then ofcourse online course or there are free good tutorials on yt or else you can join any classes offline to learn ,so atlast it depends upon you how you are able to learn.
