Learning Java Spring, their official documentation is a fucking mess. Can't get any useful information other than got dumped with loads of confusing terms/packages references/libraries.

baeldung blog site is better than the docs to some extend, but still, very fragmented information.

Ok enough ranting.. Any good learning resource recommendation? Forum?

Baeldung really is the best there is for Spring. Welcome to the world of Java: tremendous ecosystem, awful documentation.

Baeldung is really amazing in terms of Java ecosystem in general.

i feel this way about any kind of Java documentation.

They often just have a table with method names and classes like ffs just show me example snippets of code that do cool shit

For Spring 'boot I have gotten pretty far with their docs tbh. At least is not like the Android docs, where you get 5 lines of code but in reality you had to create 10 classes, 200 files and a lot of configurations to get there.

I actually think the docs on spring.io are fairly good. Sometimes they are a bit short and less detailed than you'd hope, but in that case you can always look at the source code which is always the most reliable albeit less readable source of information.
