COACH JOE MISSION:
This Coach Joe video series is an introduction to the object oriented programming (OOP) principles for java. Lesson tutorials are broken down into visual descriptions, code syntax and examples. With emphasis on following preferred standard coding rules along with following the concepts of test driven development (TDD) and unit testing. Many lesson topics apply to other languages like C#, Python, Typescript and Kotlin. Here are a list of topics included in this series that will help with your learning and education process:

Object Oriented Programming (OOP) Intro

Polymorphism - Override
Polymorphism - Overload
Polymorphism - Object reference
Object Oriented Programming (OOP) Summary

This series will touch upon JDK, SDK, Maven and Gradle but will not go into any specific details. You have several IDE options like IntelliJ, Eclipse, STS and many more.
