新年伊始，很多开发者便开始规划自己的本年度学习计划，如果你还没有决定好在 2018 年学什么，那么本文将给你一些指引。在这篇文章中，我将分享一些值得开发者学习的优秀框架，以提高他们在移动开发、Web 开发以及大数据方面的开发技能。
如果你目前的工作内容很无聊，比如负责启动和停止服务器、设置一些定时任务、回复邮件维护应用，那么学习这些框架可以帮助你得到更好的工作，并把你的事业提升到一个新的高度。
在本文中，我将分享 12 个与 Java 开发、移动开发、Web 开发和大数据相关的有用框架。如果你知道其他更好的框架值得 Java 和 Web 开发人员学习，那么请在评论中分享给大家。
1、Angular
首先推荐一个 JavaScript 框架——Angular。它提供了一个完整的客户端解决方案。你可以使用 AngularJS 在客户端创建动态网页。它提供了声明性模板、依赖注入、端到端工具和集成的最佳实践，以解决客户端的常见开发难题。
由于它是一个 JavaScript 库，你可以使用 <script> 标签将其包含在 HTML 页面中。它使用指令扩展 HTML 属性，并使用表达式将数据绑定到 HTML。
由于谷歌大力支持 Angular，所以在性能和定期更新方面你大可放心。我坚信 AngularJS 会风靡很长一段时间，因此投入时间学习它是非常值得的。
2、Node.js
毫无疑问，JavaScript 之所以能够在编程语言中排名第一，Node.js 功不可没。JavaScript 常用作客户端脚本语言，在 HTML 中使用 JavaScript 来实现客户端的动态效果。它运行在 Web 浏览器上，但是 Node.js 则允许你在服务器端运行 JavaScript。
Node.js 是一个开源、跨平台的 JavaScript 运行环境，用于在服务器端执行 JavaScript 代码。你可以使用 Node.js 在服务器端创建动态网页，然后将其发送到客户端。
这意味着你使用 JavaScript 可以完成前后端以及客户端和服务器端的应用程序开发。
3、Spring Boot
我使用 Spring 框架已经多年，所以当我第一次接触 Spring Boot 时，它简洁的配置着实令我震惊。使用 Spring Boot 编写基于 Spring 的 Java 应用程序就像使用 main() 方法编写核心 Java 应用程序一样简单。
尽管我已经尝试过 Spring Boot，但是了解还不够深入，因此我将其列在我的 2018 年学习清单上。
4、React
React 也是一个用于构建用户界面的 JavaScript 库或者框架。它类似于 AngularJS，但是由 Facebook、Instagram 以及个人开发者和公司的社区维护。它允许 Web 开发人员创建大型的 Web 应用程序，可以随时更改而不需要重新加载页面。
Web 开发几乎被 Angular 和 React 统治，选择哪一个则取决于你，需要视情况而定。例如，如果你在一个基于 React 的项目中工作，显然，你需要认真学习 React。
5、Bootstrap
这是用于设计网站和 Web 应用程序的另一个非常流行的开源前端 Web 框架。Bootstrap 最初由 Twitter 推出，它提供基于 HTML 和 CSS 的设计模板，包含了排版、表单、按钮、导航和其他界面组件以及可选的 JavaScript 扩展。
Bootstrap 支持响应式网页设计，这意味着网页的布局可以根据浏览器的屏幕大小动态调整。在移动开发领域，BootStrap 以其移动端优先的设计理念引领潮流，强调默认情况下的自适应设计。
如果你是一个 Web 开发人员并且不知道 Bootstrap，那么 2018 年是开始学习它的好时机。
6、jQuery
这是又一个统治世界的 JavaScript 框架。长期以来 jQuery 都是我的最爱，我建议每个开发者都学习 jQuery，它让客户端脚本变得非常容易。
你可以做动画、发送 HTTP 请求、重新加载页面，并且仅仅编写几行代码就可以执行客户端验证。
7、Spring Security 5
网络安全的重要性不言而喻，2018 年将更为重要。由于 Spring Security 已经成为 Java 领域 Web 安全的代名词，那么在 2018 年使用 Spring Security 的最新版将是很有必要的。
Spring Security 在新版本5.0中修复了很多 bug，同时包含了一个全新的 OAuth 2.0 模块。即使你不了解 Spring Security，你应该考虑在 2018 年学习它。
8、Apache Hadoop
大数据和自动化将是许多公司在 2018 年关注的重点，对于程序员来说，学习 Hadoop 和 Spark 等大数据技术变得尤为重要。Apache Hadoop 是一个允许使用简单编程模型在计算机集群中分布式处理大型数据集的框架。
它旨在从单台服务器扩展到数千台机器，每台机器提供本地计算和存储。它基于流行的 Map Reduce 模式，是开发可靠、可扩展和分布式软件计算应用程序的关键。
9、Apache Spark
这是另一个日益普及的大数据框架。Apache Spark 是一个快速的内存数据处理引擎，具有优雅和富有表现力的 API，使数据工作人员能够高效地执行需要快速迭代访问数据集的流、机器学习或 SQL 工作负载。
你可以将 Spark 用于 ETL 的内存计算、机器学习以及 Hadoop 的数据科学工作中。
10、Cordova
Apache Cordova 最初是由 Nitobi 创建的一个移动应用程序开发框架。Adobe Systems 在2011年收购了 Nitobi，将其重新命名为 PhoneGap，后来又发布了一个名为 Apache Cordova 的开源软件。
它允许你使用标准的网页技术（HTML5、CSS3 和 JavaScript）进行跨平台开发。
11、Firebase
Firebase 是谷歌的移动平台，可帮助你快速开发高品质的移动应用并拓展业务。你可以选择 Firebase 作为 Android 或 iOS 应用程序的后端。
如果你打算在2018年进入移动应用程序开发，那么学习 Firebase 是一个非常好的主意。
12、Xamarin
Xamarin 是一种通过单一的共享 C# 代码库为所有平台快速制作移动应用程序，为每个平台构建自定义本地用户界面，或者使用 Xamarin.Forms 跨平台编写单个共享用户界面的方法。
它由微软所有，很快成为 C、C ++ 和 C# 开发人员创建移动应用程序的热门。
如果你已经掌握了其中一种 C 语言，并且正在寻找移动应用程序开发的工作，那么我强烈建议你在 2018 年学习 Xamarin。
写在最后
以上就是 2018 年值得学习的框架。这些框架需求量很大，尤其是 Spring、Node.js 和 AngularJS——学习这些框架可以为你提供更多、更好的工作机会，即使你不打算更换工作，那么学习最新的技术也有助于你的职业发展。
如果你是 Java 开发人员，那么 Apache Spark 是一个不错的选择，但是如果相对于框架或者库来说，你对编程语言更感兴趣，那么可以试试 Kotlin。
如果你知道其他更好的框架值得 Java 和 Web 开发人员学习，那么欢迎在评论中分享给大家。
Hello guys, the New Year is already started and everybody is ready with their goals, but if you haven't decided what to learn in 2018, then you have come to the right place. In today's post, I'll share some of the best frameworks you can learn to improve your knowledge in mobile and web development, as well as on Big Data technologies.
In today's world, good knowledge of various frameworks is very important. They allow you to quickly develop both prototype and real project. If you are working in startup space then you are expected to whip something cool in no time and that's where knowledge of framework excel.
It also helps you to get a better job and take your career to next level, if you are stuck somewhere working on boring jobs, like just starting and stopping the server, setting up some cron jobs, and replying to the same old emails maintaining legacy applications.
In this article, I have shared 12 useful frameworks related to Java development, mobile app development, web development, and Big Data. If you have another good framework which you think Java and web developers should learn in 2018, then feel free to share it in the comments.
1) Angular
This is another JavaScript framework, which is on my list of things to learn in 2018. It provides a completely client-side solution. You can use AngularJS to create dynamic web pages on the client side. It provides declarative templates, dependency injection, end-to-end tooling, and integrated best practices to solve common development challenges on the client side.
Since it's a JavaScript library, You can include this on your HTML page using the <script> tag. It extends HTML attributes with Directives and binds data to HTML using Expressions.
Since Google is behind Angular, you can rest assured in terms of performance and regular updates. I strongly believe AngularJS is here for the long run, hence, investing time in it is completely justified. If you decide to learn Angular in 2018, then Angular 5 - The Complete Guide from Udemy is a good starting point.
2) Node.js
There is no doubt that JavaScript is the #1 programming language and Node.js has a big part to play in that. Traditionally, JavaScript is used as a client-side scripting language, where it is used with HTML to provide dynamic behavior on the client side. It runs on the web browser, but Node.js allows you to run JavaScript on the server side.
Tye Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment for executing JavaScript code server-side. You can use Node.js to create dynamic web pages on the server side before you send them to the client.
This means you can develop a front to back, client-server application in JavaScript. I purchased The Complete Node.js Developer Course last month on Udemy's $10 sale and I look forward to learning it in 2018.
3) Spring Boot
I have been using the Spring framework for many years, so when I was first introduced to Spring Boot, I was totally surprised by the relative lack of configuration. Writing a Spring-based Java application using Spring Boot was as simple as writing a core Java application using the main()method.
Even though I have tried Spring Boot, I have yet to learn many things, and that's why it's on my list of things to learn in 2018.
I have also bought the Spring Boot Masterclass, one of the best online courses to learn Spring Boot, from Udemy for just $10 last month, and I look forward to using that in 2018.
4) React
React is another JavaScript library or framework for building user interfaces. It's like AngularJS but maintained by Facebook, Instagram, and a community of individual developers and corporations. It allows web developers to create large web-applications which can change over time without reloading the page.
The web development world is divided between Angular and React and it's up to you what you choose. Most of the time, it's dictated by circumstances; for example, if you are working in a React-based project, then obviously, you need to learn React.
If you decide to learn React in 2018, then the React.js: Getting Started course from Pluarlsight is a good starting point.
5) Bootstrap
This is another popular open-source, front-end web framework for designing websites and web applications. Initially brought to us by Twitter, Bootstrap provides HTML- and CSS-based design templates for typography, forms, buttons, navigation, and other interface components, as well as optional JavaScript extensions.
Bootstrap supports responsive web design, which means the layout of web pages adjusts dynamically depending upon the browser's screen size. In the world of mobile, BootStrap is leading the way with its mobile-first design philosophy, emphasizing on a responsive design by default.
If you are a web developer and don't know Bootstrap, 2018 is the right time to get started with it. BootStrap 4 From Scratch is a good starting point for your Bootstrap journey in 2018.
6) jQuery
This is another JavaScript framework which rules the world. jQuery has been my favorite for a long time and I advise every developer to learn jQuery. It makes client-side scripting really easy.
You can do animation, send HTTP request, reload pages, and perform client-side validation by writing just a couple of lines of code.
If you decide to learn jQuery in 2018, then I suggest you take a look at this jQuery master class, a free online course from Udemy for learning jQuery.
7) Spring Security 5
There is no substitute for security, and in 2018, it will be even more important. Since Spring Security has become synonymous with web security in the Java world, it makes perfect sense to update yourself with the latest release of Spring Security in 2018.
The new version 5.0 of Spring Security includes many bug fixes and a complete new OAuth 2.0 module. Even if you don't know Spring Security, you should consider learning it in 2018, and there is no better way than joining Eugen Paraschiv's Learn Spring Security MasterClass.
8) Apache Hadoop
Big Data and automation are the focus of many companies in 2018, and that's why it becomes important for programmers to learn Big Data technologies like Hadoop and Spark. Apache Hadoop is a framework which allows distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of computers using simple programming models.
It is designed to scale up from single servers to thousands of machines, each offering local computation and storage. It's based upon the popular Map Reduce pattern and is key for developing a reliable, scalable, and distributed software computing application.
I have already enrolled in The Ultimate Hands-On Hadoop last month, and if you decide to learn Hadoop in 2018, you can join, too, on Udemy.
9) Apache Spark
This is another Big Data framework which is gaining popularity. Apache Spark is a fast, in-memory data processing engine with elegant and expressive development APIs to allow data workers to efficiently execute streaming, machine learning, or SQL workloads that require fast iterative access to datasets.
You can use Spark for in-memory computing for ETL, machine learning, and data science workloads to Hadoop. I have already shortlisted the Apache Spark Fundamentals course from PluralSight to go through in 2018. If you are in the same boat, you can check out that course to get some inspiration.
10) Cordova
Apache Cordova is another mobile application development framework originally created by Nitobi. Adobe Systems purchased Nitobi in 2011, rebranded it as PhoneGap, and later released an open source version of the software called Apache Cordova.
It allows you to use standard web technologies - HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript for cross-platform development, and one is of the hot technologies to learn in 2018. If you'd like to learn Cordova in 2018, then please check out Build iOS & Android Apps with Angular and Cordova, one of the exciting courses for learning Cordova.
11) Firebase
Firebase is Google's mobile platform that helps you quickly develop high-quality mobile apps and grow your business. You can choose Firebase as a backend for your Android or iOS application.
If you are looking to move into the lucrative business of mobile application development in 2018, then learning Firebase is a very good idea and Advanced iOS and Firebase: Rideshare is a good place to start.
12) Xamarin
Xamarin is a way to make mobile apps quickly for all platforms with a single, shared C# code base, build a custom native user interface for each platform, or use Xamarin.Forms to write a single shared user interface across platforms.
It's owned by Microsoft and quickly becoming popular for creating mobile apps for C, C++, and C# developers.
If you already know one of the C languages and you're looking for a career in mobile app development, then I strongly suggest you learn Xamarin in 2018, and The Complete Xamarin Developer Course: iOS And Android! is a good course to start with.
That's all about what to learn in 2018. These frameworks are in great demand, particularly Spring, Node.js, and AngularJS. Learning these frameworks will not only improve your chances of getting a job, but also open many doors of opportunity.
Even if you are settled down in your job, keeping yourself up-to-date with the latest and greatest technologies is essential for your career growth.
So, I suggest you pick a couple of these frameworks and learn them in 2018. If you are Java developer, then Apache Spark is a good choice, but if you are interested in a programming language rather than a framework or library, then Kotlin looks good in 2018.
