1️⃣ Skipping Core Concepts
Jumping into frameworks too early is a trap. Master variables, data types, loops, conditionals, and OOP (Classes, Objects, Inheritance, Polymorphism) first.
2️⃣ Ignoring the Java Ecosystem
Java isn’t just the language. Understand the JDK, JVM, and JRE. Know how Java compiles and runs code.
3️⃣ Not Using an IDE Properly
Using basic editors slows you down. Learn IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse. Explore features like debugging, refactoring, and code suggestions.
4️⃣ Avoiding Error Handling
Try-catch blocks and exception handling are core in Java. Skipping them leads to messy and unstable code.
5️⃣ Neglecting Practical Projects
Only reading theory won’t help. Build Java apps like a to-do list, calculator, or REST API using Spring Boot to apply what you’ve learned.
