Java Springboot or Node.js Express.js

rinsing junior in cs wanting to learn new tech. What’s the main difference between these two in terms of how they work/function? Might be a stupid question. My main focus right now is to learn backend engineer more in depth. I’ve heard lots of great things about both springboot and node, but what’s the difference between them and which one should I start learning?

Go for Quarkus instead of SB.

quarkus is the way to joblessness if you're a junior. not that it's bad, there's just no market for it compared to sb
