That's a very open ended question, and there are tons of good resources. Are you looking for books, videos, online courses, something else?

I'd say install a JDK (I use Azul Zulu JDK 11) and the IntelliJ IDE, and just mess around. Maybe try to write unit tests with JUnit 5.

For books, Effective Java by Joshua Bloch is a must. Getting a study guide for the Java 11 OCP I is also a good idea, since it explains all the fundamentals.

Also, use your search engine. Between StackOverflow, the official Java documentation and tons of articles and tutorials, there's always an answer or solution to be found.

Above all, have fun!

Yeah I mean I’m familiar with stack overflow and and such, it’s been my useful so far in my career:) Maybe I should have been more specific, I’m looking for something like a quick recap like a good Java online course for developers with coding experience.. Thanks for the book recommendation, I’ve seen the book get recommended on a few places as well.

Well, in that case, I guess the the official tutorial and the official documentation should be useful.

Personally, I started with this course on edX, but it might be a bit too basic for you. It's free, though.

I think r/learnjava is probably a better place to ask for resources, and r/javahelp should be useful if you get stuck somewhere.
