Welcome to my new blog. This is the first post! As the title shows, it is about my challenge to learn a new programming language, Java! In fact, I have 3 challenges here:

1. Learning Java programming language, including standard modules like Spring and some design patterns
2. Learn about the technology and processes of building, testing and hosting (Java) software. This includes trying to get a CI/CD pipeline up and running (probably using Jenkins)
3. Learning how to write an interesting blog at regular intervals. Never done that before as well.

I was inspired and motivated to do this by the Covid lockdowns (never waste a good crisis) and the new focus on R&D , Learning and Self Development at my job. Well, for the Java part I found a good course (more on that in a next post), but for the rest I suppose I just start and go along from there

In this blog I will keep you, and everybody else who is interested, informed on my challenge to learn the Java programming language. Check the About Me and My Technology sections to learn more on the “why and what”
