New Update: Learn Java!   Java is one of the most popular programming languages around, despite being released over 20 years ago. One significant reason Java has maintained its prominence is that it's the primary language for writing Android applications — the most widely used operating system in the world (sorry, Tim Apple).   That's why since our first release of Learn Java in 2015, millions of Codecademy learners have recognized the opportunities resulting from knowing Java skills. Our release today delivers improvements to this favorite course that will set you up for success in more advanced programming work.   So what's new?   We've added in-depth lessons on the basics of Java, including variables and datatypes. And we've introduced brand new lessons that cover compiliation, IDEs, and program structure — important topics relating to debugging errors and executing your code more quickly. These topics will give you a thorough understanding of the Java fundamentals, which you can then use to build applications of all kinds. For more information on the change and how it impacts current Learn Java users check out our blog post.   Whether you're learning Java for the first time, or if you're curious to see what's new, there's no better time to check out our Java course.     Bonus Video: Starting a Group Project There is a common misunderstanding that coding is a lone wolf activity. That couldn't be further from the truth! Watch this video as we explain all the ways software engineers collaborate to execute large-scale projects and how you can kick off a group project. P.S. Be the first to see new videos as soon as they're released: subscribe to our YouTube channel.   Happy coding, Codecademy
