Need Roadmap to become Java Backend / Full Stack Developer

Hi Dev Community,

I'm reaching out as a final-year BCA student who's been through the typical academic grind of learning multiple programming languages in different semesters (Sem 1 - C, Sem 2 - C++, Sem 3 - DBMS, Sem 4 - Java, and now Python in Sem 5). To be honest, this fragmented learning has left me feeling more confused than confident. I've studied so many languages theoretically, but when I reflect on it, I realize I haven't mastered any of them—and that's the most frustrating part.

But, here's where things change! I've made the decision to fully commit to one language: Java. I want to focus deeply on building real skills in this language—creating meaningful projects, gaining hands-on experience, and ultimately landing a developer role. I'm ready to put in the work, but I need guidance and support from experienced developers like you.

So, I'd love any advice, resources, or mentorship you can offer to help me build a clear roadmap to become proficient in Java and break into the world of development.

Thanks in advance for any insights you can share. I’m determined to make this happen!
