Hii everyone doing BTech & in my 3 year. I have learned Native Android development but I lack interest in that I just feel like remembering all things in it.
Recently I started springboot , I have been doing DSA in java for more than 1 year so springboot feels natural.
I would like to take some advice from the industry professionals.
Would appreciate it.

It's common to feel disconnected from a technology just because of the heavy memorization or complexity involved early on. Since you're in your 3rd year and exploring Spring Boot alongside native Android development, that's a good sign you're open to diversifying your skills.

Advice:

  • Follow what genuinely interests you more. Spring Boot and back-end development offer a different mindset than Android UIs and mobile lifecycle management.
  • Focus on concepts and problem solving rather than memorizing every API or configuration. Understanding core principles will help you adapt and learn specifics faster.
  • Consider building small projects in Spring Boot to see if that passion grows — real hands-on experience often reveals what you enjoy.
  • Explore related fields like microservices, DevOps, or cloud integration with Spring Boot if server-side is more intriguing.
  • Keep an eye on industry demand but prioritize your long-term interest; it's easier to excel and stay motivated if you enjoy the work.

Since you asked in a category about algorithms, remember that mastering algorithms and data structures is crucial regardless of specialization. They sharpen problem-solving skills essential for both front-end and back-end development roles.

Where do you guys learn Springboot?

half vault
#

for getting a job, you will probably need to add some extra skills / tools, learn some DB specific stuff, look into protocols other then REST maybe, I am just telling what I did , I even learnt how cloud works to deploy my projects, feel free to get started with the stuff i mentioned above, an actual professional can address exactly what for a job requirement i guess..

#

but thats the bare minimum

# crystal obsidian Where do you guys learn Springboot?

I just learnt it while building stuff , especially breaking stuff... debugging for countless hours, going through existing codebases and skimming the documentations for things I did not know in those codebases, could be different syntax, could be some specific annotations

#

its a very big framework, so you just learn on the go, you can not, rather should not try to just finish all the theory ( i doubt there exists a single theory source that teaches entirety of it at one go ), rather to learn what you need and then learn as you build stuff
