Description
Java from syntax to a working application — types, objects, collections, error handling, testing and the tooling you'll actually use at work.
A foundation course in Java aimed at people who will use it professionally. It covers the language, the object model, the collections and streams you’ll use daily, error handling, testing, and the build tooling and project structure that every Java job assumes you know.
Who this is for
- Developers moving to Java from another language
- Career changers targeting enterprise development roles
- Students who learned Java academically and never built anything real
- Testers and analysts in Java shops who want to read the codebase
What you’ll be able to do
- Write, compile and run Java confidently from the command line and an IDE
- Use the type system, including generics, without fighting it
- Choose the right collection and use streams where they help
- Handle errors deliberately rather than by catching everything
- Write unit tests as you go
- Structure and build a project the way a Java team expects
