The first in a series of video tutorials on Java for absolute beginners, using the free Eclipse IDE.

In this first video, I show you how to create a “hello world” Java program with a minimum of typing!

Before you watch the video, be sure to download and install the JDK and JRE (Java Development Kit and Java Runtime Environment), as well as the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers.

Click the button in the corner of the video to expand to full screen, after pressing “play”.

The code we’ll discuss in the tutorial:

public class Application {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.out.println("Hello World!");
	}

}

Hello World!
