Learning Bukkit/Java

[PremiumCraft]

Hello, everyone!

My name is Josh, and I am 15 years old. I figured that there are a lot of professional developers on MC-Market so I decided to create this post on here. So, I have seen a lot of people that can develop proper plugins and it's all so easy for them. Since I am on summer break, I really want to now spend time on learning how to code proper Bukkit plugins. I have recently started reading the Bukkit Coding For Dummies Guide and I have made my first plugin etcetera. I know this is literally nothing to actually coding a proper HCF plugin or such but I believe I could get to that point in the future. I'm not expecting to learn how to make a $1000 HCF core in a week, btw shout out to subbotted. I was just wondering if any of you have any tips on what shall I do after finishing with the Bukkit Coding For Dummies Guide, shall I watch YouTube videos on coding etcetera. If any of you have any tips on what shall I do next, please shoot a comment bellow. If any of you are interested in possibly talking to me able Bukkit coding or a little lesson for free, I would truly appreciate it. Thank you for reading my post, I hope you have a wonderful day. Bye!

I can't stress how important it is to learn Java first.

I didn't and it made the learning process so much more difficult

What shall I do to learn Java? Should I watch videos on learning Java?

I added in some resources for you, I forgot to do so in my original post.

After learning Java, I should continue with Bukkit? Like after learning Java, I should do the Bukkit for dummies and continue with Bukkit tutorials. Also, people said that learning Java from thenewboston gives you loads of bad habits.

PremiumCraft take what people say with a grain of salt. No Youtuber / teacher is perfect, honestly TNB was a good intro for me. If you really want to invest in it, I'd say go sign up for https://teamtreehouse.com/tracks

I learnt all the basics in YouTube videos then taught myself the rest and asked on BukkitDev when I really needed help. Trust me it works but it took me over a year to get to a stage where I could code a lot of stuff easily (I've been making plugins for around 4-5 years on and off to get to the stage I'm at now, it takes time bro)

I'd check out Oracle's Tutorials and this playlist by thenewboston if you're trying to learn Java.

You know that you will get so much hate for watching thenewboston
