    I'm a professional Java developer for years and I can say, without hesitation that Java is definitely not dead. Its still largely adopt in IT services. The community is absolutely huge. Also, the last release of Spring 6, project Loom and so on are very excited for us. But if I could recommend something for beginners, just focus on well established languages instead of trending ones. I mean, Java, Javascript, Typescript, Python are the most popular OOP languages. I would not recommend to learn new languages such as Rust or Golang for beginners cause the learning curve may be to complicated for you and to be honest they are not many companies compared to OOP languages which hires developers ;) BTW : thanks for you content @Amigoscode, its perfect as usual ;)

    I would highly recommend learning Rust and Go. Java has been trending down since 2016 in usage. Go especially is way more simple than Java and way easier to learn. I think we are going to see Go and Rust dominate the landscape in the next 5-10 years. They are just objectively better in every way. They are way more performant, have a better type system, they have a cleaner syntax, and their dependency management system is way better.

It might not be the hot thing that all startups are defaulting to using it today, but it definitely 1. provides a great foundation for OOP/type-based language (I would actually prefer to hire someone who has past Java experience vs just JS experience) 2. is still relevant in a large number of big (and small) companies who choose to use it.

    Hello Amigoscode Wa-Alaikum-Salaam! Really enjoyed your video and I watched till the end. I do have some personal reservations about Java by the way. When I started fiddling with programming in 2012, I started out with Java and I really didn't like the "public static void main Strings args" ritual. I didn't understand it and I was still in junior high school when I started reading a book called "Head First Java". I eventually switched to Python around 2014 and it was probably the best decision I made. After a couple of years, I wanted to try out Java again; I soon found out that Java was too verbose / long to write [for me]. I really didn't appreciate that I had to write so much code for a functionality I could write couple of lines for in Python. I haven't been back to Java ever since. I do think maybe work-related projects would eventually bring me back to writing Java code one day. Funny enough, I seem to enjoy writing C, C++ code than any other static programming language [and that would probably include Java as well - I'll only know when I have to write Java for something important]. Thanks for the interesting video. The motion graphics in the text did improve retention for me... Cheers.

    I agree that if you know assembler then any language will be very easy to learn, and if you know Java you can learn any higher level languages very easily and quickly. But in the long run, I recommend to learn more than just Java. After you master Java as a backend developer, learn JS, HTML, CSS and try to develop your own simple fullstack application with pure JS on the front end and Java/Kotlin on the backend. After mastering this step you will be able to easily understand other JS frameworks such as NodeJS, React, Angular, Vuejs, etc. After that, you will be able to easily find any job as a software developer and will be able to understand the whole picture in your company project: from the point of view of the users of the product, the front-end developer, and from the point of view of the back-end developer. And even if you will be primarily a back-end developer, knowing the rest of the application layers will help you better design your back-end architecture, as well as communicate effectively with front-end development teams. You will be think not like a coder but like an architect.

    Java is definitely still relevant for a lot of enterprise systems. The question is that if people are using Java that much for new projects with new architecture. My impression is that Java memory footprint with JVM is relatively large when compared with more modern languages such as Golang. That makes Java not the first option when microservice architecture is adopted. I guess new versions of Java might have considered this to allow people tweak configurations of the JVM, yup then you might need learn something additional to make it suitable for microservices given that microservice was not a thing back in 1995 when Java was designed. Simply put, modern languages don't just mean "trendy" but they mean they have been designed from scratched for modern system architectures as software development has evolved gradually. Java might not be the top choice in a lot of situations anymore. I have seen people build new web backend with NodeJS, Golang for microservices, Python for data science, Solidity for web3 smart contracts, Golang for devops programs such as k8s and docker.

    I completely agree. While I started with Objective C and then Swift, like Java, it really gave me a good fundamentals to understand and quickly pick up other languages, so jumping to C# and Java was simple as was picking up other languages like Go, Javascript, Typescript and Python. Unfortunately, there are too many people in software development who become too fixated on one language and then want that one language to solve every problem. Like you say, a programming language is just a tool and you should use the best tool for a specific purpose. Also, especially in the Javascript world, developers change to the hottest new framework every 6 months, while Java may not be as exciting it has a solid ecosystem that doesn't drastically change every few months.

Maybe I'm wrong, but there are new alternative languages to build backend apps related to microservices, AWS, hexagonal architecture, and so on. Golang, Kotlin (which I know is primarily used in mobile apps, but I've seen it used in backend as well), and even C# are improving in terms of language features. With new Java versions, I hope this will change, but obviously Java is still a great language.

    Hey @@codewithvenky! I would recommend starting with a more language focused tutorial (just a Java tutorial) to get some language basics + programming logic & OOP (object oriented programming). Then it really depends on what you're interested in to doing. There are a lot of different frameworks, each of them focused on a solution. If you want to make websites then learn Spring Boot, you can make android apps with Android Studio (although I think they are switching to Kotlin) and much more. Also I would recommend thinking a bit about what kind of software are you looking to develop. (Ex: for iOS apps it's better to learn Swift and make them native). Hope that helps, don't feel bad if you don't know what you want to do, I have been testing different things over the last 10 years (Started with Games on pure Java, switched to websites with HTML5 + CSS3 + Javascript, then tried some C++ in Unreal Engine, C# on Unity, back to webdev with React and ended learning backend [JavaScript/Typescript + Node.js + Express], [C# + .NET] & [Java + Spring Boot]). Just try to not waste time in "tutorial hell" as many of us self-taught people end up doing. Watch tutorials to learn how a language/framework works, but then create your own projects from scratch. If you just copy over and over projects from youtube tutorials. Like TheCherno said a long time ago "You can read a 1000 books about how to play a guitar, but if you don't take a guitar and try to actually playing it you won't learn how to do it". :)

    I think Java is still being used, or at least in the codebase, but I don't think for new projects, many companies are choosing Java. Mainly because of the way Oracle has handled their situation with Google. I don't think it's because the language is stale more about the owner and not wanting to deal with a legal battle if they don't have too.

    I agree: learning for long run is good for young people and Java has big advantages: 1. wide spread language C-style syntax (like C, C++, C#, JavaScript); 2. fatal error safe features; 3. object oriented programming libraries to learn advanced concepts & architecture of how to make good software design, development and test. I recommend learning Java with already learned entry level programming skills (e. g. on Raspberry Pi: BlueJ Java IDE, JavaScript or Python). Thats was the reason why I supported my son learning Java, after he showed interest about mathematics, physics, programming (self taught LEGO Mindstorms Robot, school: Pascal, Java). Unfortunately I never got a Java job after learning it, after long time C++ and C# jobs saved me. And these programming languages are closer to Java, or Java is closer to them as you might look at it.

    A language is always only as powerful as the tooling you can have, as well as the amount of quality libraries out there that you can use to build applications. After all, you do not want to reinvent the wheel. For Java, you have really top class IDEs (albeit for other languages too, but especially as a statically typed language the amount of knowledge an IDE can have over your project is stunning), and the amount of really well written, performant libraries and frameworks out there is just top class). Show me something like Spring Boot in another language...

    Exactly. I learned Python a few years ago after being a life long Java developer and its a find tool. Heck, its a great tool. But the IDE support is like being in the dark ages because of the lack of static typing. I often hear people talk about other languages being more efficient to write in than Java. I think a proficient java developer with a good IDE and a framework like Spring Boot is pretty damn fast.

    Java makes the standards all the time on how to do things in the backend so that's why enterprise code is always there. It's robust and mature. I hate Java for the boilerplate but it's by far a great language for solid backend. Example, Dependency Injection which is also masively used on Angular, Nestjs that is a masterpiece which was 'standard' in Java way before ... so be smart not hyped.

    I gave myself brain-damage when learning to code, by starting out with old-school BASIC (AppleSoft, GW-Basic) and then I was told by a teacher to go and learn Pascal. Same argument as Javascript vs Java -- start with the sane language ASAP to undo my bad habits, and make it easier to pick up other languages. It was excellent advice, because it was much easier to pick up C after that.

    One of the problems for beginners when they approach older popular languages like Java is that the sheer number of highly specialised areas in which they are used makes it hard to evaluate what to learn. Also the scope of these languages can seem overwhelming. Clarifying what the core elements of a language are can really help reduce the initial shock. I used to be a trainer, developer and team leader. Java was my go-to tool for most projects. But problems with deployment and licensing (still ongoing, as I understand) shifted my focus to other languages. I'm not a fan of Oracle's approach and I'm glad to be out of it.

    The only problem to solve problems w java is that this language has a syntax that hinders more than it helps, this certainly makes life difficult for the programmer. Today I really appreciate some other languages, like Kotlin, because this language takes the best of Java concepts, for example, it decreases the code size, causing faster development of large Android projects. But it's really necessary to understand that Java is very important and necessary for some projects, besides being fundamental for understanding modern software development.
