Hardware and software requirements for Java Standard Edition development (Java SE 21) with NetBeans and MySQL

   

Java Development Tools

  1. Download and install the Java LTS version 21 from JDK 21 downloads.
  2. In Windows, create then an environmental variable named JAVA_HOME pointing to JDK installation folder.

Earlier versions of Java are not compatible with the course content, you will need to have version 21. If you already have an earlier version of Java on you machine, you do not need to uninstall it. You can let it be there and install version 21 along with that.

Development IDE

Download the latest version of Apache NetBeans for your operating system and install.

If you prefer to use a different IDE, that is also fine as the examples do not make use of any IDE specific functionality. Support in the training, however, can only be provided for NetBeans.

RDBMS

  1. Download and install the latest version of MySQL Community Server (free software).
  2. Download and install the latest version of MySQL Workbench (free software).

Other tools

  1. Download and install Git Version Control (free software). If you have an older version of git, it is highly recommended that you update to the latest version.
  2. Create a Github account if you don't already have one (free to use).
