In this course, Setting up a Java Development Environment, you will go through all the steps necessary to set up a fully functioning Java development environment. First, you will learn how to install and use the Java Development Kit, which is required to compile and run Java code. Next, you will see how an IDE like IntelliJ makes Java development more productive. Last, you will explore how to package Java applications into JAR files for wider distribution. After finishing this course, you will have a working Java development environment, so you can start your Java learning journey.
