All right, guys, getting questions about should I learn Java in 2022? Every time I hear somebody ask me this question, there's one problem that comes in my head. You have not done your local job market research to determine what the Java demand is in your local area. And that lets me also know you don't have a good idea about your industry and what's in demand as other programming languages as well. And just to get the quick answer, yes, yes, yes, yes, guys. Java is a programming language that has been around for years. It's an enterprise level software language that a lot of people use, a lot of legacy code, a lot of things. If you if you don't take away anything from this video, you got to know Java have a huge market share as far as legacy code and popular applications like SAP, Spotify, Cash App, a lot of enterprise level software. And if you guys use Android, you heard of that company. That's their official programming language. Android is not going anywhere no time soon. So just the fact that you give me this question, Java lets me know you haven't done a lot of research on your actual program of your local job market or any job market. A lot of you beginner developers have the notion to say, hey, just because a program language is not popular in the new framework space or the new developer space, that means that maybe it's not necessarily in demand from a business industry perspective. And you are wrong. Java, C sharp, C, C++, a lot of these legacy, a lot of these program languages that's not the new sexy Python or anything or the hot goals and things like that. You may think, well, they're not popular within a developer community because they don't have the new fresh frameworks and stuff. Guys, there are billions of lines of code that was written with Java. Well, in advance, mainframe days. That's still in production today and is going to be in production 20 years from now. The question is how many developers they're going to have to maintain this code and actually keep it updated. And I don't see Java going in nowhere any time soon. What I want you guys to do is, first of all, give me your perception or what's going on in your industry in the comments below. Let's start a conversation so that I can kind of figure out why you guys are questioning Java. Is it something that you're seeing that I'm not? I would love to be able to hear this. So go ahead and put your your feedback in the comment section below so we can start a conversation. That being said, that being said, guys, SAP, a lot of enterprise level stuff. I would say a lot of my stuff in my academy that I teach is around Python, JavaScript and SQL. The reason I don't do Java up front is because Java is that secondary enterprise language where you can write less code with Python. It's more training beginner family Python. And once I teach you Python or SQL or JavaScript, you got that base programming knowledge and you know how to navigate the syntax and code and all that. Then I can introduce you to a Java, a C sharp, a C something like that to where it's a little bit more advanced to write certain things. You can take one line of Python. It can be three lines in Java, the exact same process. So I try to limit that training to get you to to understanding programming a lot faster, then go to that. Don't take that as Java is not as robust as a Python or something, because at the end of the day, C, C sharp and Java, if you're talking about enterprise applications, those two are king when it comes to the enterprise SAP productivity sector of it. Once you start to get into the operating system side, at least from a computer or mainframe perspective, you start to get into the C, C sharp. No, C, C plus plus is things that need to run massively fast. But if you need that middle ground, some enterprise level, multiple developers going to be involved, Java and C sharp are going to be where you want to be. Then you start to get into you need the scripting stuff. A lot of you need some fast pace, something that you knew for data science. You may be one or two developers. You get your old news, things like that, where you're going to use Python and other programming languages. What I'm saying is there's a hierarchy. There's a lot of code that's existing legacy code. And I got a lot of developers who are not going anywhere. No time soon. So Java is a programming language that is still worth learning in twenty twenty two guys. And I don't see that changing anytime soon. I made some notes. I want to make sure I cover that. But before we go into other detail, guys, I need to make sure you go ahead and sign up for my seven step guide in the description box is free. Go ahead. We talk about other programming languages doing your local job market research, advancing your career, define your career goals, put you in a position to win. So go ahead and get that.

Guys, so go ahead and support the channel with some of those premium courses. Links are below to everything. That being said, guys, what I want you guys to do going forward is start to think about problem solving a lot more. A lot of you guys are in the forums and I want you to be in the forums and all that stuff. But I also want you to understand the business side of program. I think a lot of you guys are looking at the hobbyist who just use the Python, a lot of the other program language, not Java, because Java is really heavy compared to Python or something like that. But for enterprise development, it's the sweet spot. Got a lot of lexical out there, heavily supported. Got companies like Oracle and SAP who really are massive companies who still use it. So it got that corporate backing and it got a competitor, C Sharp, which is basically the Microsoft version of it. But they're almost the same, guys. If you know C Sharp, you can easily transition to Java. So that's another thing you got a lot of you guys don't understand as well. Because if you come into an interview, you're a C Sharp developer, but it's a Java position or likely they'll pick you up. You actually bring a unique perspective to the table that they want on their team. So that's another reason Java and C Sharp kind of get paired together when you compare programming languages. Well, guys, that being said, guys, go learn Java. It's worth it. You're not making a mistake. You're going to win. Regardless of most of you, if you're in the top 10 programming languages, you're good to go. You just need to do your local job market research to ensure that you can get a job when you finish doing your basic learning. So like, subscribe to the content, guys.
