As someone who works with this framework for a living, don’t learn it on your free time. It’s absolutely worth learning vanilla Java, but you can learn Spring Boot on the job

It’s not so bad. I’m just a lowly webdev and my work with Java is mostly just basic CRUD operations

I write Java for a living and the places I’ve worked have used Lombok to cut down on the boilerplate code

Sure thing

I’m here because I’m interested. I’ve put in so many applications but have had no interviews despite 3 years of experience and a masters degree. Y’all let me know

My resume must be screwed because I have a masters degree and 3 years of experience. Recruiters email me but ghost me as soon as I send the resume

Y’all are getting interviews???

I simply refuse to move forward if the interview process involves a whiteboard interview. I have no aspirations to work at FAANG so this has only happened to me a couple of times

You’ve had a job where they let you use Linux on your machine? Every job I’ve had has been strictly windows

I had a job where we used Spring Boot with JPA on the backend. It was nice because you could just use the ORM methods for basic CRUD functionality. But on the other hand it has this @Query annotation we used for whenever we wanted to write our own queries. Probably against best practice but it worked well enough

Thanks. I’m on weworkremotely but I’ll check out the other ones

I haven’t used it, but this node package looks enticing
