Java is one of the most widely used programming languages in the world, designed to be platform-
independent, secure, and versatile.
🔹 What is Java?
Java is an object-oriented language developed by Sun Microsystems (now owned by Oracle
Corporation).
👉 Its key idea:
“Write Once, Run Anywhere” (WORA)
🔸 How Java Works
1. You write code in .java files
2. It gets compiled into bytecode
3. Bytecode runs on the Java Virtual Machine
4. JVM makes it run on any system (Windows, Linux, Mac)
🔹 Key Features
Object-Oriented (OOP)
Platform Independent
Secure and robust
Multithreaded (can run multiple tasks)
Large community support
🔹 Where Java is Used
Web applications (Spring, JSP)
Android apps (earlier primary language)
Enterprise systems (banking, ERP like SAP)
Big data tools (Hadoop ecosystem)
🔹 Simple Example
public class Hello {
public static void main(String[] args) {
[Link]("Hello, World!");
🔹 Popular Frameworks & Tools
Spring / Spring Boot
Hibernate
Maven / Gradle
🔹 Java vs Other Languages (Quick)
Easier than C++ (no manual memory management)
More structured than Python
Highly used in enterprise systems
