Welcome to the java project wiki! - Paul-Babs/java-project GitHub Wiki

The project homepage with basic user documentation, including guidelines on how to write a simple java app.

This is a reference for setting up a new Java-based project. It contains most of the java basics I've learned over the years. When I start a new Java project I clone this repository and get to work.

public static void main(String[] args) { ... }

This is the main method. Every application in Java must contain the main method. The Java compiler starts executing the code from the main method. When you run any of the Java project, Java compiler first compiles your Java code to bytecode. Then, the JVM translates bytecode into native machine code (set of instructions that a computer's CPU executes directly). JRE (Java Runtime Environment) is a software package that provides Java class libraries, Java Virtual Machine (JVM), and other components that are required to run Java applications. Each projects run on another platform without any modification.
