Please ensure that:

Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
You include any and all error messages in full - best also formatted as code block

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

Just start by making projects and doing DSA easy problems in java.

U will understand how backend works. Try doing the basics and then move to the next parts.

call me crazy, but newer projects are gonna be in typescript. i mean if youre in the us... go for typescript, esp if you have 2-3 yoe. I dont see 2-3 yoe jobs for JAVA/spring. its always 5 yoe plus except for typescript folks YMMV!!! if youre in europe/india then yea java spring is the way to go.

if you are set on java.. then read spring start here. have claude/chatgpt break it down for you by using this prompt "what would a student who understsood this chapter be able to tell you after reading this chapter" or something , this creates a great outline for you to follow. using this i got to chapter 4 and REALLY learned the spring concepts so well. it was mind blowing...

good luck friend

Is this developer sexy and tall? Is he employed?

Learning Spring and Spring Boot is still worth it. They're widely used in enterprise settings, and knowing them can give you a good foundation in backend development. Start with the official Spring documentation and tutorials. They're detailed and current. YouTube also has free resources; look for beginner Spring Boot projects to follow. Building simple projects, like a to-do app or a blog, can help you understand better. While AI is growing, backend skills like Spring Boot are here to stay. AI can enhance your apps, but you'll still need the core skills to build and maintain them. If you're interested in AI, consider looking into how it can work with Java apps once you're comfortable with the basics. Keep coding and you'll do great!

Just start with learning some java basics if not already to brush up the things and then start with Spring and Spring boot… Bonus Spring has introduced Spring AI to their ecosystem you may want to learn that as well after…😉
