Java tutorial for beginners - Become a Java programmer. If you don't have any background into programming (or Java), this video is made for you.

This video might look a bit weird and vertical, don't worry! I made this so you can follow along more easily: just take the video on half of your screen, and use your code editor on the other half, so you don't need too go back and forth between your code and the video.

- On Windows and some Linux OSes: drag this window until the mouse hits the left or right edge of the screen. It should resize to half the screen.
- On Mac: Make the video and your code editor fullscreen and then in the multi-desktop view, just drag one onto the other (see around 3.00).

In this Java tutorial, you will install Java 14 and your first development environment and you will learn to write your first Java applications. You will:
- understand how Java works on many platforms and why it's so popular
- create variables in Java, of various types
- compute any expressions you want, on different types
- make the computer do different things based on conditions
- make the computer automatically repeat instructions
- define your own data types with classes
- customize your data types with fields and methods
- understand the difference between access modifiers public and private
- write class-level fields and methods with the static modifier
- understand how a Java application runs

By the end of this Java tutorial, you will create your first chatbot - we'll call it Rock - which will greet you politely by your name, and will compute your age based on the information you give it. After that, it will perform a repetitive task very, very fast.
