# Java Developer Roadmap
> Roadmap to becoming a [Java](https://g.co/kgs/bzeRda) developer in 2024:
Below you can find a chart demonstrating the paths that you can take and the libraries that you would want to learn to
become a Java developer. I made this chart as a tip for everyone who asks me, "What should I learn next as a Java
developer?"[中文版](./i18n/zh-CN/ReadMe-zh-CN.md)
## Disclaimer
> The purpose of this roadmap is to give you an idea about the landscape. The road map will guide you if you are
> confused about what to learn next, rather than encouraging you to pick what is hip and trendy. You should grow some
> understanding of why one tool would be better suited for some cases than the other and remember hip and trendy does
> not
> always mean best suited for the job## Give a Star! :star:
If you like or are using this project to learn or start your solution, please give it a star. Thanks!

## Wrap Up
If you think the roadmap can be improved, please do open a PR with any updates and submit any issues. Also, I will
continue to improve this, so you might want to star this repository to revisit.Idea from : [Golang Developer Roadmap](https://github.com/Alikhll/golang-developer-roadmap)
## Contribution
The roadmap is built using [Draw.io](https://www.draw.io/). Project file can be found at `java-developer-roadmap.xml`
file. To modify it, open draw.io, click **Open Existing Diagram** and choose `xml` file with project. It will open the
roadmap for you. Update it, upload and update the images in readme and create a PR (export as png with 400% zoom and
minify that with [Compressor.io](https://compressor.io/compress)).- Open a pull request with improvements
