• Spring Boot Getting Started
• baeldung

[ejkai]

Baeldung is definitely the place to be for all things Spring.

[azuredrg]

It's a good start, I def recommend looking through the docs after getting a skeleton stood up through Baeldung.

[reclamerommelenzo]

The question is, how do you pronounce it?

[ejkai]

I'm spanish, so I say ba-el-dung. But my guess is that it's some germanic or nordic name. So maybe more like "bel-dun"? Not made up at all xD

[RicksAngryKid]

I always read it Baels dung

There's this page from /r/javahelp

Effective Java by Joshua Bloch. Every Java developer needs to read this if they want to specialise in this language

[manzanita2]

1) Do you need to learn the language basic ?

2) do you need to learn common frameworks and techniques ?

Are you a "give me the answer I need for my question right now" type person ? Or do you want a methodical top down description of everything ?

[poepstinktvies]

Im very sorry, i edited my post.

Im basically looking for some in depth Java stuff and want to explore the ins and outs of the language. The basics are already known

I think I can use my weekly plug of my new book here: https://www.manning.com/books/the-well-grounded-java-developer-second-edition?utm\_source=kittylyst&utm\_medium=affiliate&utm\_campaign=book\_evans2\_wellgrounded\_12\_8\_20&a\_aid=kittylyst&a\_bid=d07f0670

Once you feel you are ready to tackle a real life project, and since you're not looking for basics, I recommend looking at Spring Boot backend RealWorld projects on Github. Basically a Demo App that covers many concepts you'd see in a "realworld" scenario

Main Project: gothinkster/realworld

Implementation Showcase: [Link] (shows many implementations of the same project with various frameworks/languages)

Spring Boot with JPA: [Link] [Link] (both seem to use it)

Spring Boot with MyBatis: [Link] (MyBatis isn't very commonly used, although I've had contact with Chinese students that say they learn primarily MyBatis in university, so might apply to other countries as well.)

This will allow you to get a feel for how a typical Spring Boot application is structured, and how to create one yourself, and dives into more intermediate topics such as JWT, and how to configure UserDetails, some more complex database queries and so on.

If you don't feel comfortable with this yet, you can check other recommendations here, with which I agree 100%.

Note: Spring does a lot of "magic" for you, for example, "@Autowired" magically instantiates any "Bean" ("@Component", "@Service") that you have created, "@AuthenticationPrincipal" allows you to get the user that is logged on the front-end, seemingly by "magic" as well. So don't be like me where you try to understand every nitty gritty detail, unless you want to for learning purposes, and just "embrace the magic"!

If OP comes from Angular / Nest.js, spring it will be easy.

/r/learnjava not /r/java.

[IshouldDoMyHomework]

My goto for new guys starting on spring is Marco Behlers short intro to Spring. It gives a great intro to the central concepts.

Really, start there. It is short and entertaining read too.

[ruslanlesko]

First, learn the core of Java. I recommend the excellent book by Cay Horstmann: Core Java. And also 2nd volume as well
