I studied Java once with a book, but I didn't know much about it, so I looked for a different way to study and listened to the lecture. At first, I was not sure if it was long because it was not much different from the book, but the more I listened, the more I became convinced that I had done well in listening to the lecture. The lecturer explained it with analogies, so I understood it better than when I studied with the book, and I think he explained it in more detail than in the book. So now I feel like I know and understand Java a little bit. And the system where I can ask questions right away is also really good. I don't usually leave reviews, but if there are people like me who are wondering whether to just study with the book again or listen to the lecture, I wrote this because I wanted to let them know that they won't regret listening to the lecture.

Where else can I take a course like this at this price, ... I'm still a little lacking in writing code on my own... but I'm confident that I can do it if I study hard!! I'll study hard until I finish the course! Thank you ~!!!!!!!

I haven't taken all of the classes yet because I'm looking for the parts I need, but I'm leaving a review first because the lectures are really good. The lecture materials are organized and prepared in a way that's easy to find. When I'm in a hurry, I can just look at the code in Notion, and it's also good for debugging by copying and pasting. (Of course, when I have time, it's best to try it out myself.) And the examples are fun and well-made. They contain the content that's essential for understanding the concepts, but they're also interesting and provide good stimulation. This is Yalko's second lecture after JavaScript Reactive Programming. I felt that all of the lecture materials and lecture content were full of useful content without any unnecessary details. Thank you for preparing such a great lecture.

Intensive Java Language Course 🔥

I wanted to create a course that eliminates the need to take any other courses once you've finished it. As a beginner, have many of you felt that something was missing when you jumped into practical work after taking a basic course?

To save you the trouble of searching for advanced lectures and content to quench your thirst for knowledge, I have finally completed a lecture after long preparation that digs deep into everything from the very basics for 🍼 beginners to advanced concepts and applications for 🍺 professionals all in one go. Especially in today's world where AI is replacing coders, this lecture will be a great help in growing into an essential talent.

Detailed Lecture 🎙️

We delve deep into not only Java syntax and basic usage but also how each feature operates, how the respective classes and libraries are designed, and how they each impact internal performance.

Efficient and in-depth learning through debugging 🐞

Instead of simply printing values to the console, we will learn efficiently and deeply by making full use of IntelliJ IDEA's debugging features to intuitively verify the values used in examples and examine the internal details of instances.

Convenient practice via
Notion pages 🖥️

We provide a lecture page so you can check text content and example codes through your browser and copy-paste them. (🔗 Free Part Link) 

All the knowledge you will learn in this course is condensed into examples prepared with great care over a long period. You can follow the lectures while viewing these examples on a webpage and copying and pasting them for hands-on practice.

Basic content released for free 😎

To ensure that students can study without any financial burden, half of the entire curriculum is available for free through the preview.

Frequently Asked Questions 💬

Q. What can I do after learning Java?

Java has been one of the most beloved languages worldwide for a long time. Especially in Korea, where Java-based technologies like Spring are widely used, it is an advantageous language for domestic employment. Furthermore, since Java shares the classic characteristics and designs of other languages, mastering Java alone will allow you to learn other languages very easily.

Q. What are the features that differentiate this from other Java courses?

This course is conducted using numerous examples packed with various knowledge about Java. You can practice conveniently by utilizing the 🔗 course page, where you can examine and copy-paste all the examples.

Instead of simply looking at each Java syntax element and feature on the surface, we dive deep into how each is internally structured and operates through debugging and examining original source code. We explore their relationships with other features and concepts, as well as the most efficient ways to utilize them. Since the course density is very high, you will acquire a vast amount of knowledge relative to the total duration (20 hours).

Q. I am already working with Java in practice; how much will this lecture help me?

A deep understanding of the language that serves as the foundation for the frameworks you use is essential for properly utilizing those technologies. Only by learning Java correctly can you prevent various inefficiencies, errors, and performance degradation that occur in practice, and use your technology stack freely. Continuous in-depth learning is also essential to grow into a professional who cannot be replaced by AI.

      Whenever I develop, if there is something I don't know, I keep coming back and checking. The lectures are good, but the parts organized through Notion are a great help in development. It's like a comprehensive gift set. If you feel something is lacking while studying Java, you can fill it in through this lecture.

        Thank you so much... I've been preparing and producing for over half a year, but I've been worried and sometimes even dizzy if this method is right and if the explanations will be understood by the students. I'm so happy and it's rewarding that the lectures were helpful to non-majors!! Please feel free to ask questions about any difficult or insufficient explanations during the remaining course! I'll do my best to help you until the end. Thank you for taking the course!!!

      To conclude, 'There is no lecture like this at this price anywhere in the world...!'. In fact, you can feel the taste of object-oriented programming JAVA just with the free part, but the paid part is really packed with easy-to-see examples and explanations! Of course, you have to review, but I think that thanks to this thoroughness, you can easily get the idea of 'Oh, this concept was like this' in one lecture. Some people said that the lecture was too fast, so I was worried, but I looked at the code on the Notion page provided first or typed it myself and then listened to the lecture, so there was no problem with that part. In fact, I listened to some parts at 1.5x speed, so I think those who are taking the lecture don't have to worry. Of course, the lecture content is not easy... There is a lot to memorize! Especially the paid part! However, I think it's because Java itself is a subject that you have to learn a lot, so you can approach it more easily through easy examples, and because the lectures are divided into 'things that are good to know now', 'things that are good to look up later when you need them, things to just look at', etc., I think it was a class that could greatly lower the entry barrier to Java through the lectures! Of course, I haven't memorized all the parts I need yet... But I think I can learn it quickly through review. I dream of becoming a backend developer, so this was a lecture that I really needed. Thank you!
