    Hi,

    I'm a mobile dev but looks like I'll be moving into backend, so will need to get to grips with Spring and Hibernate.
    I'll pick it up on the job but I'd rather do some work beforehand so I'm not a total newbie on day one.

    For those of you who already have experience here, what would you recommend I do?

    Best thing is to probably sit down and put the hours in, but where do I even start. I've Googled it and there's a tonne of guides with various other libraries. It's good there's a wealth of info, but I haven't a clue which ones are worthwhile. It seems Spring Boot is better than Spring (?) although it looks like its just a website that generates a skeleton project.
    But basically what I'm saying is, I'm short on time that I'd rather not spend Googling. So if someone can point me in the right direction, it'd be much appreciated.

    Thanks.

    You're thinking of Spring Initialiser, and it generates the skeleton for you. Spring boot is different.

    If you're company are paying for it, or you don't mind paying the subscription, pluralsight has a few worthwile courses online too.
