Start with basics (syntax, OOP), practice coding daily, build small projects, and take a structured course like this Java training, which covers core to advanced topics with hands-on labs. 

Yes! With 2-3 hours of daily practice, you can master Java basics in 3 months. For full stack Java (including frameworks like Spring), aim for 6 months. 

This java programming for complete beginners course will accelerate learning with focused modules. So, don’t sweat, even if you’re new to this programming language. 

Salaries of Java Developers vary by experience, location, and full-stack skills. 

  • US: $127,887/year
  • UK: £69,800/year 
  • Germany: €55,000/year 

Yes! Java full-stack devs (Java + Spring Boot + React/Angular) are highly sought after for enterprise apps, fintech, and cloud solutions.

Indirectly. Java powers backend systems for AI/ML tools (e.g., data pipelines, APIs) but isn’t the primary language for ML modeling (Python dominates). Libraries like Deeplearning4j enable Java-based AI.
