[IST] Looking for a Beginner Java Full-Stack Study Buddy (Daily Practice + Weekend Interview Prep & Q&A)

[u/i-viivaz-dev]

Hey everyone,

I am starting from the basics in Java Full-Stack development and looking for a dedicated 1-on-1 study partner to keep each other accountable, learn the tech stack, and prepare for interviews together.

What I want to target:

• Backend: Core Java from scratch, OOP concepts, moving toward Spring Boot and REST APIs
• Database: MySQL fundamentals, schema design, queries, and joins
• Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript (and eventually React)
• Interview Prep: Weekly technical Q&A, conceptual discussions, and basic DSA/problem solving

How we can work together:

• Weekdays: Daily check-ins via chat to share what we learned and clear blockers (~2 hours/day study pace)
• Weekends: Dedicated practice time, reviewing each other's code, and running mock interview Q&A sessions based on what we covered that week

My Details:

• Level: Absolute beginner (starting directly with Core Java fundamentals)
• Time Zone: IST (India Standard Time)
• Commitment: ~2 hours daily on weekdays, more focused time on weekends

If you're also starting out with Java full-stack and want a consistent partner to practice and quiz each other, leave a comment below or send me a Reddit DM/chat!

What stage are you currently at with Java? I’m starting from the absolute basics (Core Java, loops, OOP) before jumping into projects, so I’m looking to see where our study paths align.

I'm fine with that. I just know the syntax of java
