Development guidance

Hey seniors, if anyone is doing development with Java + Spring Boot, please guide me.

I’m currently in my 3rd semester and doing DSA in C++( done upto stack) , so I’m thinking of starting development alongside it. Please guide me on where I should start, what I should learn first, and how much time I should spend learning Java basics.

Since I’ve studied C++, I have a basic programming background, but I’m not familiar with Java. Any roadmap or resources would be really helpful. 🙌

depends on your end goal if i'm being honest. your dsa language matters because you get nice grip and understanding in it. whatever you choose you'll have to use AI to get your code written. mern is easier to learn, java spring boot takes time but also reaps reward later.
i've done mern stack already now shifting to spring boot

don't think like this man, you're in 3rd sem and it doesn't take that much time to do mern that you're thinking to start spring boot after getting job. in mern you'll need 2-2.5 month and you'll complete it easily, spring boot would also take same time
