I'm starting a new job as a full-stack developer (currently back end), I have a month before I start the new job (we can choose what stacks to work with) and want to create some personal projects. With so many options out there, I was just wondering what is your favorite java stack to use and why?
Thanks
This is going to sound like a troll but I'm a long-time Java developer that hasn't written Java code in over a year because I've switched to Kotlin.<p>Practically speaking, I'd start with whatever stack your new employer already uses. Having a solid understanding of the existing components will give you a baseline understanding of what was chosen and why.<p>One framework that's caught my eye recently is Micronaut which is basically a simplified version of Spring with added benefits like using little to no reflection.
