Hello and Welcome.
I am in the process of Learning Java Programming for Business Application Development. And I would like to share what I am learning for others who are interested in learning also.
Important Note: This series assumes you know a programming language like C++. I will try to explain everything as simple as possible, But it will really help if you know how Object Oriented Programming OOP works.
What is Java Business Application Programming?
Basically this is learning Java. But for making programs for Business use.
What is Java?
What is Java technology and why do I need it?
Java is a programming language and computing platform first released by Sun Microsystems in 1995. There are lots of applications and websites that will not work unless you have Java installed, and more are created every day. Java is fast, secure, and reliable. From laptops to datacenters, game consoles to scientific supercomputers, cell phones to the Internet, Java is everywhere!
Is Java free to download?
Yes, Java is free to download. Get the latest version at java.com.
If you are building an embedded or consumer device and would like to include Java, please contact Oracle for more information on including Java in your device.
Why should I upgrade to the latest Java version?
The latest Java version contains important enhancements to improve the performance, stability, and security of the Java applications that run on your machine. Installing this free update will ensure that your Java applications continue to run safely and efficiently.
What is this series about?
This article is an introduction to this series on Java for business programming. We will be getting our hands dirty with examples that you can follow so you can learn by doing to learn Java.
I am teaching this as I am learning it, So I want to teach it in the easiest way I can for you to understand.
What will I need?
You will need Java, Netbeans, and MySQL
MySQL: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/
MYSQL Setup: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-installation-excerpt/5.7/en/general-installation-issues.html
Java: https://java.com/en/download/faq/whatis_java.xml
Netbeans: https://netbeans.apache.org/download/index.html
Netbeans is the IDE that we will be using to write the code, Java is the language, and MySQL and the Database we will use. THEY ARE ALL FREE!
I appreciate you joining me on this journey to learn Java for Busines Applications. I hope you enjoy learning this as much as I am.
Next Lesson: We will be on making our first program with Java that will ask for input then gives an output back to the user in the Terminal.
