I am required to pick up java (with basic previous experiences) + 1 specific application framework, having spending most of my times in Python and Django. Chose Spring mainly due to my requirements.
May I know what could be the equivalent of Django’s development server in Java so I can easily run and check my Java code?
You can deploy a web app using Spring to any Java EE app server. I’d say that the simplest choice would be Tomcat, the Apache servlet/JSP engine.
