What You Will Need

Before enrolling, it is essential that you meet the following course prerequisites:

• JDK 11 (or higher)
  You must have Java Development Kit (JDK) 11 or a newer version installed on your machine. The JDK provides the necessary tools, libraries, and runtime environment to develop and run Java applications. It is important to have the appropriate JDK version to ensure compatibility with the course materials and exercises.
• Java for Beginners (or equivalent)
  It is highly recommended that you have completed our “Java for Beginners” course or possess equivalent knowledge. This ensures that you have a solid understanding of the foundational concepts of Java programming, including variables, data types, control structures, loops, methods, and object-oriented principles.
• IDE Proficiency
  You should be comfortable using a Java Integrated Development Environment (IDE) such as IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or NetBeans. Familiarity with basic tasks within the IDE, such as creating projects, editing code, compiling, and running programs, will be beneficial throughout the course.
• Git
  You should be able to perform basic Git operations such as committing changes, cloning a repository, creating branches, and pushing code to a remote repository. Additionally, having a GitHub or GitLab account will enable you to collaborate on projects and showcase your work.
