1. Reflection API. Reflection. The Dark Side of Java

A JavaRush student with the famous nickname Darth Vader (level 13 JavaRush, Kharkov) spoke about the “dark side of Java” (not surprising with such a nickname!) - Reflection API and about reflection itself, a mechanism for studying data about a program during its execution. This is a very useful and powerful feature of Java, so we highly recommend checking it out.

2. 5 tips to improve your chances of finding a job

This is not the first (there was also this one: Review of the Book “Java Persistence API and Hibernate” ) John Dorian (level 36 of JavaRush) offers his article . In this material, an experienced author shares his thoughts on what a novice programmer needs to do to increase his chances of getting his first job. And, I must say, everything is to the point.

3. Annotations. Part two. Lombok

Remember Viktor Sergeev (level 40 JavaRush, St. Petersburg) and his “a little boring” article about annotations ? So, as the author promised, he wrote the second part. Here everything is much more fun, since we are talking about a very interesting library - Lombok. Don't know what it is? Read the article!

4. Java useful software

Once again, Ivan Zaitsev from Kiev (level 32 JavaRush) shares his knowledge with us. During his studies, he found several useful applications that could be useful to developers. Ivan’s other works are Design Patterns and My Story .

5. Your first Hibernate application

Who here hasn't heard of Hibernate yet? In fact, many have not heard, especially if you have just started learning Java. But if you have already reached the middle of the course (or further), it’s worth starting to take a closer look at this extremely common framework. John Dorian (JavaRush level 36) wrote an article for everyone who is starting to understand Enterprise technologies.

6. Why Android development? From personal experience. Reasoning and facts

JavaRush student Darth Vader (level 13, Kharkov) is in touch again . This time he talks about one of the possible career paths for a Java programmer - Android development. Don't know exactly where you would like to go yet? Perhaps mobile development is your path? Read the article and get inspired for further study!

7. What should a new Android developer learn?

We continue the topic of Android development in our digest. Vadim Nikitchenko (JavaRush level 30) told us what technologies and services a future “mobile” programmer who is already a little familiar with the Android SDK should pay attention to.

8. Your first application using Java servlets

John Dorian (JavaRush level 36), one of the most prolific participants in our competition, in his third (or fourth?) article talks about servlets and shows how to write a simple application using them. The author recommends reading this material in conjunction with the previous one (about Hibernate).

9. Stop writing cycles! Top 10 best methods for working with collections from Java8

And again John Dorian (JavaRush level 36)! The same one who wrote the previous article and several more. This time the author touched on a topic that is relevant even for those students who are taking the Java Syntax quest (from about the seventh level), although it will be appreciated by those who are already accustomed to working with collections. Learn these “lifehacks” and become better!

10. Five reasons to learn English

Who is on duty today? Vladimir (JavaRush level 40) from Almaty decided to share his thoughts on learning English. If you still doubt that you need this language no less than Java, read Vladimir’s article. Perhaps he will convince you not to abandon the language of international communication.

11. “Clean Code”, Robert Martin. Review of the book on “kung fu code” for developers

Have you heard about the book Clean Code by Robert Martin? Every single JavaRush developer has not only heard, but also read. And I’m glad that JavaRush students don’t lag behind them. Artem Murk (level 35 JavaRush, Dnepr city) studied this manual and wrote a review about it. Are you ready for this book yet? Do you need it? Read the review and find out!
