Good short Java & Maven tutorial for interns?
Hi all,
Can anyone recommend a good short Java & Maven (more focused on WebApps) course/tutorial that is free?
By short I mean that a complete beginner can work through it in 1-2 days (8 hours each) … just to get the basics(!) of Java (compiling, OOP, classes, if, loops, lists, string) and Maven (structure, build, dependencies, packaging, plugins)
What's important to me isn't just ANY that you can find on Google, but ones that YOU know are good!
Programming is something very complex. I don’t know anyone who has learned the basics in any language within 16 hours. I think the idea does not work, except the person brings a lot of experience with
The person should not be able to get everything from the FF 😀
But have an overview – more logically, it will then proceed acuh with dkumentation and research …
This will only help the person extremely little. It would be better with a simple hello world and then slow to touch. I know some of those who tried this on the complicated way. They didn’t last long
If that’s so – it’s a bad tutorial – I’m not looking for that.
It’s about getting an overview – several things have seen/made (e.g. copy past, but just put together) and can understand the rough ideas.
To go to a “bigger” project (of course still ridiculously small when it comes to “real world” projects) where probably everything that happens is read and checked again – but this time with an overview – and you know what you have to look at…
The time is too short to get an overview, let alone to process the information. In other words, at the end of such a tutorial, one has read it all, but with great probability, most of it has been forgotten. In order to be able to actually begin, one should start again from the beginning.
I can understand this very well – in a good toturial I also assume that it starts from a smaller base, and then further builds up, but also explains the basics of abstract concepts.
