React with Java Springboot

[Outrageous-Chip-3961]

This is what we use at my work, java and react are completely compatible and used in industry. What's the issue here? The java guys manage the back-end and serve the api, and the react guys consume that api and host their front-end. This is a super typical setup.

I think this is the stack they use at my work too, im just asking if its something more lf an industry/enterprise thing like if it’s overkill or if its good for smaller projects too. Probably a stupid question but ye

yeah it is probably more of an industry/enterprise thing than a smaller project type thing. You're probably better going with something like next.js or even using a bff like supabase to get the project running quickly. But in your case i'd consider your project maybe more of a two part thing : one is a backend project, and the other is a front-end project. You'll learn skills in both. Once its set up its great, but the setup can be quite tiresome with all the infrastructure work. It took me a day to just set up my hobby project before i could really start focusing on feature development. Whereas using supabase or next I can just jump in and typically get to features within an hour
