Oh man, I feel you on the string parsing struggles! One of my go-to java programs common solutions is Guava for collections and preconditions. Like, why rewrite null checks when `Preconditions.checkNotNull()` exists?
Also, JUnit 5 for testing—life’s too short for manual asserts. And if you’re tired of writing POJOs, Records (Java 14+) are a game-changer.
For file stuff, NIO.2 (Files class) is way cleaner than old-school FileReader. Less boilerplate, fewer headaches.
Ever tried MapStruct for mapping objects? Saves so much time.
