_ LEARN SPRING AND SPRING BOOT

Learn Spring|

from no experience to actually building stuff

Spring is, by far, the most popular framework for application development in the Java ecosystem. By a wide margin. The reasons are quite simple – it’s stable, mature and highly practical, while also being modern, through constant innovation.

And, while the Spring ecosystem is quite large and moving fast, the core functionality is actually super stable. Learning Spring means – learning the core, Spring Boot, Spring MVC, the basics of persistence and REST.
