If you really do have 3 years in java experience, JavaDocs, let alone the Bukkit/Spigot wiki and youtube videos is more than enough to get you started, I've had nearly a year (not even) of Java learning and after that Spigot was an easy api to start coding in, as unless you needed nbt tags/custom entities you really didn't need to touch NMS, the core minecraft code.
If you want to get into Bukkit/Spigot plugin development then the Bukkit wiki has a good starter guide here: http://wiki.bukkit.org/Plugin_Tutorial Bukkit/Spigot is limited in what you can do because it is pure server side and that limits you a little bit where as Forge allows you to also create client side mods so you can make custom blocks, mobs and much more however not everyone want's to install client mods so it comes down to what you want to make and who your target audience is. Minecraft Forge mods are a little different and forge does not have as much documentation as the Bukkit API but there are some tutorials that can help get you started but you will be required to go looking for some more. Here are some links that may help you out, http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Tutorials http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php?topic=14048.0
