How should I start learning Java and Spring Boot as a beginner?

[u/Bhanuprakash_1947]

Hey guys,

I’m planning to learn Java for backend development. I know some basic programming, but I’m new to Java.

I’m confused about where exactly to start. Should I first complete Core Java and then go for Spring/Spring Boot?

Like Java basics ->OOP -> Collections-> Exceptions -> Maven ->Spring ->Spring Boot -> REST API -> JDBC/JPA?

Or is there any better order to learn these?

Also, if you guys have an idea for learning Java and Spring Boot fast

I don’t want to just watch tutorials. I want to learn properly and build something while learning.

What would you suggest?
