Please ensure that:

  • Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
  • You include any and all error messages in full - best also formatted as code block
  • You ask clear questions
  • You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

If your post has remained in violation of these rules for a prolonged period of time (at least an hour), a moderator may remove it at their discretion. In this case, they will comment with an explanation on why it has been removed, and you will be required to resubmit the entire post following the proper procedures.

To potential helpers

Please, do not help if any of the above points are not met, rather report the post. We are trying to improve the quality of posts here. In helping people who can't be bothered to comply with the above points, you are doing the community a disservice.

First thing to learn is to research on your own instead of waiting to be served and spoon-fed. On reddit, this means searching the subreddit and reading the !sidebar.

Had you done that, you already would have gotten your recommendations -> MOOC

In our sidebar ("About" on mobile), we have a section "Free Tutorials" where we list the most commonly recommended courses.

To make it easier for you, the recommendations are posted right here:

Also, don't forget to look at:

Look up how to make a Spring MVC project with a repository pattern and now you’re doing what people do in 90 percent of jobs :(

And nobody uses the MVC part anymore it’s just a placeholder for a modern UI framework which will most likely be some flavor of TS/JS

That's all very well and good intentions, see for example https://www.reddit.com/r/SpringBoot/comments/1vfkmfe/i_built_a_real_job_simulator_for_spring_boot/

But before you can even think about looking into spring, OP needs to learn programming and syntax (in Java or any other language) first.

You can't just dive into Spring right away as new programmer :).

Java is very verbrose. I’d start with a textbook and struggle my way up from there.

Dude, first determine why you learned, decide what you want to do, then if Java sleeps, you will start from Java.
