I didn't expect this.. But I love Java again

The beginning, Java, or rather public static void main

So to start, and give you some information, Java was my first real programming language of which I had acquired some knowledge.
I started writing some Swing apps (JFrame, JPanel, Google exists, just search it) and I loved it.

C and C++

But then my interests shifted to C++, and later C, where I would then, in late 2023, begin writing a kernel.

So I wrote,
but it was horrible.

Le Colonel

Of wasted time.

The first mediocre version of it was v17, or Xk7.
X for 10, so 10th kernel seventh try, seven plus ten, is, well, seventeen.

I already am at Xk8 now, and I discontinued it,
because Makefile didn't wanna compile my context-switching eye-twitching annoying and sometimes bitching C sources.

Minecraft

So, bored, I played Minecraft again, made some small mods but I hate that Mojang changes shit every three minutes, so, well, I got bored, again.

Java... Again

But I liked Java, so, well, I began trying to re-learn the basics.

And that was quick.

I wanted to make a mod loader for Minecraft, and I began with a classloader.
That was it for now. I'll sleep on it.

But now the important part

I wanted to write some app that could be used by businesses. And I ADORE AND LOVE JAR FILES.

So I downloaded Eclipse.. Well, I mean I used it again.
And now I am writing Jooking. A booking manager which uses GSON for JSON serialization and manages, well, bookings.

I enjoy its Object-Oriented design.

What I want to take with me

I want to explore some more challenges, because every fail, is one step to pave the way to success... Or something.
Idk I am just a random dev writing about his experience with Java and C etc.

End of "Le Historie du Alexandre avec Java"

Or something

Thanks for reading this blog.

I just wrote this because I felt like this is something to write about.

Thanks,
LLCCH / Alexander.
