Welcome to the Java Overview Wiki!

Few words from author:

This wiki is mainly based on experience from my professional years. Everything what is written here I had to first learn by my self and then I tried to described it simple as possible. I believe that you only understand technology after you can explain it to small child or someone from totally different field.

_My origins come from web-development where I gain a lot of experience with dynamic languages as JavaScript, PHP and Python. From this years I like to make analogy between web development and Java World because a lot of practices are similar or already exists only under different name. _

_For example, in web development you have browser which is great analogy to Java Virtual Machine. It's some emulated world which should in theory work same but many vendors/companies modify it for their purpose. Remember browser wars where fight IE, Firefox, Chrome and Opera. It's similar to Java Ecosystem, where fight GlassFish, Wildfly, Spring and J2EE. _

To make some sense from that web community agrees on some standards which everyone uses - World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). In Java it is exactly same only name of the community is Java Community Process or Eclipse Foundation.
