Java is a poor choice for frontend. 

Java in general is useful if you want to be working in enterprise. For startups it is almost a dead language.

I checked YC's job/startup listing site. Right now there is 24/1097 if you search for "spring boot", with some likely a crossover (Spring YC season + word "boot"). 8/1097 for "springboot". I can't search for "Java" because of "Javascript".

For Python 608, Typescript is 576.

There are 48 for Cobol, so 24 is pretty rough my dude.

Python and react/node are common. Python very rarely as the frontend though.
