on a pc?

#

the term ur looking for is called IDE

#

we are generally recomming IntelliJ as ur java-ide

#

but there are others too (for example eclipse, netbeans, visual studio code)

#

for installing java itself, we have a guide u can follow:

Download latest Java from https://adoptium.net/, run the installer.

Open a CMD and type java -version and javac -version, if both show your new Java version, you have successfully installed Java! 🎉

In order to prevent issues with old installations you may want to remove them. Type where java and where javac. They should only show the new and no old entries:

If that is not the case, you may want to clean up. Therefore, type "environment variable" into the Windows search and follow the dialog. You will see two entries for a variable called Path, one for your user and one for the system. This variable tells Windows where to look for commands, like java and javac.

Edit both. Make sure that they only list the entry to your new Java installation and remove all the old entries you have seen with the where command before:

Confirm and close all dialogs. Restart your CMD window and try where java and where javac again. It should only list the new installation now and nothing else.

Congratulation, your Java is now finally ready, happy coding 🎉

For learning Java, we recommend MOOC.

It is a completely free introductory Java course created by the University of Helsinki, it is a great way to learn Java from the ground up.

Visit MOOC here:
https://java-programming.mooc.fi
(the course is available in both English and Finnish)

  • The MOOC teaches a broad introduction to programming in Java in two parts - one at beginner, and another at intermediate level.
    The end of the course is marked by creating your own Asteroids game clone!
  • The MOOC allows using features up to Java 11 - you can install Temurin OpenJDK 11 from the Adoptium project.
  • To submit exercises for evaluation, you need to configure an Editor/IDE (Integrated Development Environment) with the TMC Plugin.

The course instructions will suggest to use TMCBeans/NetBeans or VS Code for the course, but you can also use IntelliJ, which we generally recommend.

  • TMCBeans/NetBeans is the easiest to configure - but has the most dated user experience
  • VS Code is very popular as an editor, but it is quite new for Java Development. Some extra configuration is needed.
  • IntelliJ arguably has the best user experience and is most widely used Java IDE by professionals.
    IntelliJ requires installing a version no newer than 2023.1 - because the IntelliJ TMC Plugin doesn't work with newer installs.
    The IntelliJ Community version is completely free and all you need to install the TMC plugin.

To use IntelliJ with the MOOC, simply install the TMC plugin by opening IntelliJ -> File -> Settings -> Plugins and searching for TMC. You will then be able to use IntelliJ to complete MOOC.

https://java-programming.mooc.fi/part-1

Part 1 - Java Programming

Helsingin yliopiston kaikille avoin ja ilmainen ohjelmoinnin perusteet opettava verkkokurssi. Kurssilla perehdytään nykyaikaisen ohjelmoinnin perusideoihin sekä ohjelmoinnissa käytettävien työvälineiden lisäksi algoritmien laatimiseen. Kurssille osallistuminen ei vaadi ennakkotietoja ohjelmoinnista.

#

Then I will know everything of java

@fallen meadow

#

part 1 covers the first 6 months

#

part 2 the second

#

from zero to junior-job its roughly 2-3 years of learning

#

but after about a year ur at a point where its easy to find ur own way

without a resource to follow
