Java vs Java EE: What's The Differences?

Java vs Java EE: What's The Differences?
A question I often get asked is, "Tim, what's the difference between Java and JEE?".
So today, I'll discuss the differences between Java and Java Enterprise Edition.
Here are the links to each of the courses mentioned in the video.
Java Programming Masterclass for Software Developers:
lpa.dev/KZbinJava/y1
Java Enterprise Edition 8 for Beginners Course:
lpa.dev/KZbinJEE/y1
Java Spring Tutorial Masterclass - Learn Spring Framework 5:
lpa.dev/KZbinSpring/y1
My name is Tim Buchalka and I have put together a series of videos which I call the "Programming Tip of the Day". And basically, each video goes through talking about some of the pitfalls and things that you'll need to overcome to succeed as a programmer, things like overcoming frustration and keeping yourself motivated.
In this series I will also answer common questions about choosing a programming language to learn, questions about your career path and things of that nature. Now there's a lot of other things as well that I'll cover in these videos and I'm also opening the lines for you to tell me what you want me to cover.
Now I've been a programmer for over 35 years so I think I'm really qualified to answer a lot of these questions. So if you do have a question, pop the question in the comments section of this video and I'll do my best to address that in a future video.

Great vid ! I had problems with this in the past. I had a question if you don't mind me asking, is JavaFX still relevant in 2019 or am I better off with some other language/library for GUIs ?

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

For Desktop apps, yes, JavaFX is still relevant. In general there is a big push for web based development, so there will almost certainly be more opportunities for you there.

[@viktorreichert9346]

As far as i know it's possible to create Java EE complient applications from your Spring Code. Is this correct? How?

[@palomarAI]

Tim, please consider doing a course on SpringBoot with Kotlin, or otherwise non-Android development with Kotlin.

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

Hi William. I have been thinking of doing a course with Kotlin that is not related to Android. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@ryanwoolf4908]

Hi Tim, Great explaination... Question: I have done a few of your courses on udemy and really enjoy your teaching style. I am currently working on grails and over the next year I want to learn as many parts of Java ee in order to transition but I don't want to go down the course route. I would rather have a practical coding challenge that would test me on a wide range of java ee concepts, that I need to complete every month and at the end of it have a senior Java developer go through where I have gotten it wrong, where I have gotten it right, how I could improve etc... and then be given the next coding challenge. Do you know of any mentorship programs or something similar that you would recommend?

[@lacascadaobregon]

Check out the "OCA/OCP Java SE 7 Programmer I & II Study Guide" by Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates It's an awesome book with tons of exercises inside. Also, check out the "Think Like a Computer Scientist: Java" book, think it might just be called "Think Java". Also has tons of great practice questions. Best of luck

[@vinay4238]

Thanks for this tim, i actually want to purchase your java ee course but i have a question regarding that course, actually your java ee course is based on java 8 and currently we have java 11 ( 12 as well ) does it make any difference please tell me.

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

Nope absolutely not - there are some new features in Java 11 and 12 for that matter, but 99% of the code you will use is based on Java 8 so you won't have any issues.

[@pranshuc]

Didn't get my question/query answered from this video, Felt more like an ad for the course being taught !!!

[@noirRozelle]

Tim do you know any good Java EE course?

[@luisbarahona3773]

Do you need to know HTML & CSS aside from Java EE in order to deploy along with the Spring Framework?

[@dsar8727]

No. Those are client side frameworks. You can use EE to create batch jobs or automations that don't need a client side.

Hi Tim, I'm recently saw your channels, finding an answer for spring framework an JEE ,so on, thanks; I have 2 questions from your experience; 1rst I did many proyects with eclipse enviroment, jdk 1.8.0, can you explain why is so differents whit the new versions, this affect my codes in future? 2nd Why do you think Android Studio promote Kotling, what is the real motivation, please, any answers, I apreciate so much! Many Thanks

[@kristiyangerasimov6708]

to answer 1rst question you'd pay a consultant to run through your code and then give you a report and findings depending on your business. 2nd is more straightforward - Google enjoys competing with Apple in the mobile devices OS space. While Apple focuses on Swift, Google pushes Kotlin and optimizes the Android environment

Thanks for this I really appreciate you and this again thanks ok bye

[@amr5225]

is there any recommended Basic Java course, pre to learning spring or javaEE ?

[@jdgamboa5201]

Here in Colombia I see a lot of postings for JEE and Struts jobs, and nowhere near as many for Spring. Why could that be?

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

It sounds like for whatever reason Spring has not got a good foothold in Colombia. It's a good thing you see JEE and struts jobs though, that tells me there is an audience for those skills. you may find possibly that the uptake to Spring is just a little slow and maybe you can learn Spring now and get a jumpstart on the competition!

[@RunOs3]

Hi Tim, what is your opinion on programmers getting Java certified? Do you think it will help with getting a job as a Java Developer or is it better to just get really good at Java, and to use those skills to get a job?

[@TheDrapetomanic]

He answers that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqCUYolujLSlodk

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

Yeah official Oracle Java certification is something the industry looks favourably at - i.e. its generally worth getting.

[@msh104utube]

Are you offering a Java 11 EE course, besides the 8 EE course? I see the Java 11 Certificate course on Udemy, but I do not know if that pertains to 11 EE.

[@surjagain]

Do I need to learn Java EE to understand how the Spring Framework works? I'm taking your Spring Framework course and I do find it difficult to fully understand how Spring Framework works, a lot of the things that Spring does looks like magic 😋 Do I have to learn object oriented analysis & design and design patterns before getting into Java EE or Spring?

It helps a lot

Hi Tim, I'm your student in Java course on Udemy. First of all thank you so much as a student. You are a great teacher!. I have a question for you. I m interested in develop an ERP software. I have no programming knoledge but I wouldlike to start programming. I started your course for Java beginners. I know it's a big challenge but I would like to do it. Could you please suggest to me which of your courses I need to follow and in which order to develop a cloud ERP software? Is Java language enough for do a project like this? I saw that there is also a course on My SQL database as they are so important for develoap an ERP. Thank you so much and hope to receive your answer.

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

Hi Mario, Thanks for the support! You would need to learn a variety of technology before attempting to create software like that - Some of the technologies that would be useful include SQL, PHP, Javascript, HTML/CSs and Java if you plan to use that also. You can see a list of all my courses here - lpa.dev/courses/y - I have courses on all of those topics. I'd probably recommend you start with the Java Masterclass first.

[@mariod7403]

Hi Tim Thanks a million for the answer. I m following Java Masterclass now. Whane i'll finish this I will follow the one you recommended. Can you suggest me the best order to follow them?

[@alpsahin4340]

Hello Tim, I am just confused about one thing. And i would appreciate if you make a video about it. I am curious about artificial intelligence and machine learning. So i want to become an engineer for these. But, i've been busy with learning java, css, html etc. for a few months. I feel that i am close to start earning money with these. I already have a cool and realistic Hotel Management Project which i have built with javaFX. I am thinking about starting to applying jobs because i need to make some cash on these days. But as i said there is machine learning on the other hand. Would you suggest me to go all the way down for becoming a software developer? Like learning to write clean code, software engineering principles, design patterns of Java etc. Would these knowledge be beneficial when i make the transition to machine learning? Or would you just advise me to forget about what i've done so far and directly jump in to machine learning without going any deeper? Also, is it possible to make a career in both fields? I can't stop thinking about this, so any help would be good. Thank you.

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

Thanks, I'll look to cover that in the future. I do have this video that may help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJiVkmmFapeIeJo If I were you, I'd get some work first before looking at machine learning/AI which are advanced topics that require good basic programming skills. The fact you have created a project with JavaFX tells me you do have some good skills though so perhaps you are ready! Why not focus on earning some money with programming first, and then decide once you are doing that if you want to get into AI/Machine learning ?

[@ownagejuice1394]

4:30 mins in, I still dont have an idea what is J2EE lmao

[@pedrodfg]

[@arsalanwahidi9234]

do you prefer to make game with javafx?

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

JavaFX is not a good choice for fast action games like racing games or shooters. Its probably ok for card games, etc. To produce games like racing games, etc you would be better using dedicated game frameworks like libgdx. I have a course on that topic. JavaFX is really designed more for business type applications and graphical user interfaces.

[@kevinxiao7303]

What’s the difference between JDK and JRE?

[@TheLearnProgrammingChannel]

JDK = Java Development Kit. It contains the tools to build and compile Java program. JRE = Java Runtime Edition. It's lets you run Java code (it executes the code you have created).

[@kevinxiao7303]

So does that mean that you need both to successfully build and run Java programs?

[@haroldmcbroom7807]

They've really over complicated everything. I've been using Javascript up till the point that what I now need exceeds the capability of JS, come to find out, I now need JAVA which they tell me, isn't the same, because Java is "compiled", while JS is not. I need "file IO", to be able to read data from text files, and process it accordingly. How I need to process that data, is also outside the capabilities of Java, so I need Java EE because it contains Web Development features. I never even made it to Java, because of all the contradicting online tutorials that always seem to miss that one important thing, that was never mentioned concerning environment variables. Even the instructions from Oracle themselves, are often times outdated, poorly maintained, leaving you with tons of questions followed by those contradicting answers, most of them from INDIA. I'm sure most of you can relate to these question: What is the difference between JDK and Java SDK? Java, Java SE, and Java EE? Do I need JDK or JRE, or both, what file do I need to compile, what file to run? Does JRE come with JavaEE, ...with JDK, and the list of questions go on... Some answers say JRE comes with the Java EE, other says Java EE is a framework built on top of Java SE, still others say, as of version 9 JRE no longer comes with blah blah blah, and if that doesn't make you want to thrust your fist into the center of your monitor, then your left wondering, why are they talking about version 6, 7, 8, 9, with others are talking about version 16, 17 and 18, come to find out, that Java branches out in different directions. I think it's their intention to make things as complicated as they can. This seems to be the cycle of online education these days... Toolchain hell, framework hell, Text Editor/IDE hell, setting it all up, getting it all to work. By that time you've thrown up your hands, and say to yourself, "What's the point!!!". This is why we can't have NICE THINGS, because people love to over complicate the things that were once simple. In trying to make things EASY, they over complicated things... just like with the Bible, in trying to make things EASIER TO READ, they created controversy. It's what people are good at! PS. Be careful when installing programs by Embarcadero, unless you want to spend hours removing all the directories that DOS says doesn't exist, but windows does, and vice versa, but that's a Microsoft issue that's been around for some time.
