Why Do Developers Choose Java?
Required Elements to Become a Java Developer
Why Do Developers Choose Java?
For decades java has been at the forefront of software development. In fact, it ranks #3 on the TIOBE index as the most popular programming language in the world. From web and software to mobile and cross-platform development it has been a reliable companion for developers. Every tech giant and fortune company has used Java for customer-first applications and since these need to be developed, maintained, and deployed as per surging demand, companies hire Java developers to keep resources in check.
This gives a reason to developers for opting this domain and grab the opportunities for a bright future. Java is compatible for all use cases with its benefits such as
- Easy Learning Curve
Many will criticize Java as not easy to learn, which is half-true. The syntax of Java is much easier to understand. Once the syntax is grasped the language isn’t hard to learn. Moreover, Java codes have high readability which means they can be interpreted and understood by any other Java developer.
- Platform Independent
Developers prefer technologies that can run on any platform. This is what Java offers from the moment it was released, it is platform-independent. And developers can install, and run Java codes regardless of the type of platform, this lets developers easily load their codebases on multiple platforms for prototyping and mockups.
- Open-Source
Just like modern-day tools and languages Java is open-source and free to use. Millions of developers contribute to its open source codes to help improve its efficiency for any product development practice. This helps even beginners and mid-level programmers to get early access to the latest version of Java without any paid methods.
Required Elements to Become a Java Developer
To become a Java developer, one must master a variety of skills, including coding and debugging, UI/UX design, API integration, databases, Java-based components, software structure maintenance through collaboration with the back-end teams, unit testing, etc. This leads to a pool of opportunities for developers across a range of industries.
- Programming and Debugging SkillsÂ
As a Java developer, you must be familiar with a variety of programming languages, including Core Java SE, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Moreover, the developer should keep up with their latest updates and versions to create cutting-edge solutions.
Debugging is another important factor that checks the code quality and errors. A Java developer must have the analytical and problem-solving mindset to find bugs and resolve them with greater efficiency.
- Proficiency in OOPs and DSA concepts
Object-oriented programming(OOP) principles and data structures and algorithms are two of the most important concepts. The OOP concept focuses on solving complex problems in smaller chunks using polymorphism, classes, and encapsulation whereas, data structure and algorithms(DSA) focus more on making the data and code efficient by using a technique such as Big O notation, sorting algorithms, etc.
- Advanced Java EE
To leverage the full potential of Java, one must master the Java enterprise edition. This edition lets you work on web development and has specifications for additional features like distributed computing and web services including Servlet, WebSocket, and Java Server Faces.
- Spring and Hibernate Framework
Hibernate and Spring are the most important frameworks of Java. In fact, Springboot, Spring MVC, and Spring Cloud are the most used framework by companies to develop Java-based applications. With Hibernate on the other hand developers can map object-oriented models to a relational database and Hibernate query language. Hence learning these frameworks is essential to become a Java developer.
