JR: изучаем Java - Java learning game

Explore the world of Java programming from the ground up through a quest-style game designed by the developers at JavaRush. The course features 1200 hands-on tasks and 600 brief lectures.

Want to pursue a career in development but struggle to find time for in-person classes? No worries! You can now invest as much time as you need into your learning and study from anywhere. Even dedicating just half an hour allows you to complete 1-2 lectures and tackle a few challenges :)

The Java curriculum is structured like a game, divided into 4 quests. Each quest contains 10 levels filled with lectures and tasks. Imagine engaging in a typical game while simultaneously honing your programming skills!

Coding numerous lines on your mobile device can be challenging. Thus, we've created a support system that includes hints and auto-completions to help you code more efficiently. Once you've written your solution, you can submit it for evaluation and receive immediate feedback.

This application offers Java assignments tailored to various levels of complexity:

- Crafting your own code;

- Modifying existing code;

- Engaging mini-projects and developing games.

If you encounter any challenges while working on a task, feel free to utilize the help section where fellow students and course developers are available to assist you.

Your progress is continuously saved, allowing you to pick up right where you left off whenever you wish to continue solving problems or attending lectures.

About JavaRush

What is JavaRush?

JavaRush is an interactive online course on Java programming in a game format.

The course consists of four quests (Java Syntax, Core, Multithreading, Collections), each of which has 10 levels. Each level includes short lectures on Java theory (one lecture - one topic) and tasks to consolidate the material learned. Access to materials is opened sequentially, as you progress through the course.

The main “features” of the course:

Learning in a game format. JavaRush is a futuristic world with its own characters and history. The character that you need to “pump up” is the robot Amigo. He learns programming from scratch. For the correct solution of problems, you receive bonuses (“dark matter”), which helps you move forward in your training.

The necessary minimum of theory with live, interesting examples. The course includes only the knowledge that is really necessary for employment.

Practical training. The course consists of 80% programming practice. Tasks appear from the first lessons, and their complexity gradually increases. You can solve tasks directly on the site, receiving instant verification of the result and recommendations on how to improve the written code.

Preparation for employment. Starting from the middle of the course, students write mini projects (for example, an application for a restaurant, a chat bot, games), receive tasks aimed at preparing for interviews. And starting from level 35, you can participate in an online internship at JavaRush. Working in a team, you will write a serious project that you can add to your portfolio.

Help from course developers, students and graduates of JavaRush. You can ask the community for help in solving complex tasks, communicate on any issues related to training and job search. JavaRush is a global community of programmers.

The goal of the entire course is to gain real programming skills in Java in order to easily get a job as a programmer.

What will I learn on JavaRush?

First of all, you will learn Java Core. This is the foundation of the Java language - everything that EVERY potential Java Junior should know. And you will learn it in practice, solving more than 1200 problems. From the second half of the course, there will be mini-projects: the games "Sokoban", "Star Wars", online chat, ATM emulator, etc.

When you reach level 35 of the course, you can sign up for an internship and create a real project, during which you will study a number of modern technologies that go beyond Java Core.

In addition to the basics of Java, some lectures are devoted to how to properly write a resume, prepare for interviews and pass them.

Where can I see the training plan?

A detailed training plan and a list of topics to be studied are available in the quest cards: Java Syntax, Java Core, Java Multithreading and Java Collections.

Do you issue diplomas/certificates?

1. If you are a student of the “Java Developer in 12 Months” course, you will receive a JavaRush diploma, which will confirm your deep knowledge of Java development. Of course, provided that you complete the entire training program and successfully complete the final projects after each of the 6 modules of the program.

2. If you are taking an online Java course on your own, unfortunately, we cannot provide a certificate. For many, self-study is a convenient format that we actively support and develop. However, in this case, your training takes place without a teacher, final work, the quality of which can be assessed with the help of a qualified mentor / developer. In short, there is no objective assessment. Although, of course, your level of knowledge of the basics of Java, as well as a number of professional tools and frameworks after completing the main course should be high.

How will studying on JavaRush benefit me?

Studying on JavaRush will help you gain programming skills in the most effective way.

It is impossible to become a programmer only by reading books or watching videos! To learn programming, you need to… program a lot and develop the “correct” programming mindset.

For this, the course has over 1,200 tasks of varying difficulty with automatic verification of the correctness of the solution. Solve all the tasks - get over 300-500 hours of practical experience.

A combination of theory, practice and - most importantly - feedback on the code you have written - that's what JavaRush gives.
