Step-by-Step Guide: Java Mini Projects for Beginners

Are you a beginner in the world of Java programming? Are you looking for some hands-on experience to enhance your skills? Look no further. In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through some exciting Java mini projects that are perfect for beginners. These projects will not only help you grasp the basics of Java programming but also provide a practical understanding of how to apply your knowledge. So, let’s get started.

Understanding the Importance of Mini Projects

Before diving into the actual projects, let’s understand why mini projects are crucial for beginners. Mini projects allow you to put theory into practice, giving you a chance to experiment and learn from real-life scenarios. They provide an opportunity to work on small-scale applications that can be completed within a short period.

Project 1: Calculator Application

The first project we will explore is creating a simple calculator application. This project will help you understand basic arithmetic operations in Java, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. You can also expand on this project by adding more advanced functionalities like square root or exponentiation.

To start with this project, create a new Java class and define methods for each arithmetic operation. Use user input to retrieve numbers and perform calculations based on the selected operation. Finally, display the result to the user.

Project 2: To-Do List Application

A to-do list application is another excellent choice for beginners as it allows you to work with arrays and implement basic functionality like adding tasks, marking tasks as completed, and displaying the list.

To create this application, begin by defining a task class with attributes like task name and completion status. Then use arrays or ArrayLists to store multiple tasks. Implement methods to add tasks, mark them as completed or incomplete, and display the entire list.

Project 3: Hangman Game

The hangman game is a classic project that can be implemented using Java. It involves guessing a word by suggesting letters within a limited number of attempts. This project will enhance your understanding of string manipulation, loops, and conditional statements.

To build this game, start by creating a list of words to choose from randomly. Display the initial empty spaces representing the hidden word and prompt the user to guess a letter. Check if the guessed letter exists in the word and update the display accordingly. Keep track of the remaining attempts and display appropriate messages based on the outcome.

By completing these mini projects, you will gain practical experience in Java programming while reinforcing your understanding of key concepts. Remember, practice is essential for mastering any skill, and these projects will provide you with ample opportunities to do so. So roll up your sleeves, dive into coding, and have fun exploring the world of Java programming.

In the first lesson of the case study we look at a project proposal for a Java based project. We start by looking at information gathered from the stake holder who we shall call 'Stocking Goods Limited' and how this can be translated into a multi tiered user application fit for purpose.

Project Proposal  Top

Stocking Goods Limited are a wholesaler of general goods that are stocked from various locations around the country. Each day they stock the goods required to fulfill orders from customers invoices. Currently this is achieved by several clerks who tally up invoices and call the various manufacturers who stock the goods required.

As the company has grown and the number of invoices and stock to order has increased, the manual user processes are becoming more error prone and Stocking Goods Limited want a new user system to automate invoice calculation and stock purchasing. They have decided that the invoice calculation processes are more involved and can be deferred to the second phase of automation. For the initial phase of the project they want the stock purchasing side of the business automated.

Information forwarded by Stocking Goods Limited includes the file structure of the Manufacturer data file whose format musn't be changed and an interface that must be implemented without amendments. The reasoning behind this is that another project group are working in tandem on a reporting system and Stocking Goods Limited have provided both projects with the format of a Manufacturer data file and a Stock interface that must be implemented as is.

The project will be written using Java technology only and must implement the following features:

• "client" - Run the application in non-networked mode so that access to the Manufacturer data file from the GUI runs in the same JVM and doesn't include any networking or serialization of objects.
• "" (no argument) - Run the application in networked mode so that access to the Manufacturer data file from the GUI runs in a different JVM and includes networking and serialization of objects.
• "server" - Run the application in server mode with functionality that provides the logic for displaying configurable objects and starting and exiting the server in a safe manner.
• Search functionality should include the capability to search by name, by location, by name and location or search all records.
• Stocking orders should only occur once. If the amount entered is wrong the goods will have to be unstocked and the correct stock order reentered.
• Stocking Goods Limited do not anticipate more than one program having concurrent access to the Manufacturer data file as the reporting system will be run in batch overnight. So our locking only needs to deal with multiple concurrent clients using the server.
• We write doc comments in HTML and these must precede a class, field, constructor or method declaration. Doc comments are made up of a description followed by block tags which are the names of parameters, return types, pointers etc. (@param, @return, and @see are examples of block tags).

Manufacturer File Format  Top

Stocking Goods Limited have provided us with the format of the Manufacturer data file they want us to use although there is no test file provided. We will have to create a Manufacturer test file ourselves which we do in Create Manufacturer Test File in the next lesson.

Stocking Goods Limited have requested that we create a class representing the record information within the Manufacturer file called unsuprisingly Manufacturer as they see a lot of future reuse of this file and it will also be helpful when implementing the Stock interface.

A Manufacturer object should be a representation of the Manufacturer file record information in an object oriented framework, allowing easy access to fields.

Stock Interface  Top

The following Stock interface will be used in other projects and so must be implemented as is. The interface provides the contract for the CRUD operations for the Manufacturer file as well as templates for the search and locking/unlocking mechanisms.

Stocking Goods Limited have also included doc comments for the interface which are written in HTML and can be turned into a document at a later date using the javadoc tool. As requested by the stakeholder, we will have to also provide doc comments for all class, field, constructor and method declarations.

Proposal Conclusions  Top

After reading through the information supplied to us by Stocking Goods Limited we can draw certain conclusions:

• We will be using a package called model to store the supplied Stock interface in.
• We will need to implement the Stock interface and shall call the implementation class StockImpl .
• A situation might also arise where a user tries to stock goods that have already been stocked by another user and if this happens we will need to throw an exception which we will call StockingException .
• The Manufacturer file, Stocking Goods Limited have asked us to create, will also go in the model package.
• We will also be creating a new GUI and will be accessing services locally and also remotely using RMI-JRMP . This scenario fits in well with the MVC pattern and so we will use this pattern for the project.
• As we are using the MVC pattern we will place all our GUI code into a client package.
• As we are using RMI-JRMP and will have local and remote services we can place our controller code into services and RemoteServices packages.
• If we are running in "server" mode we will need to include a Swing panel to automate information gathering for the remote location of the Manufacturer file used as well as a port number. We can then use this information to create and register a remote connection using RMI-JRMP for our remote clients to connect to.
• We will need to seamlessly connect local or remote clients and therefore will have to include Swing panels to automate information gathering for the location of the Manufacturer file used as well as a port number if we are running remotely. If fact the file information is common to all three run modes so we can use the same Swing panel and include a port number where appropraite.
• Stocking Goods Limited hava requested functionality to search, stock and unstock the Manufacturer file and these services must be available to local and remote clients.

The five main reasons for Java’s popularity are:

• Platform independence – Java runs on the WORA (Writing Once, Run Anywhere). A Java code is compiled into an intermediate format (a.k.a. bytecode), which is then executed in the JVM (Java Virtual Machine). So, any system running a JVM can execute Java code. Furthermore, JRE (Java Runtime Environment) is compatible with all three operating systems – Linux, macOS, and Windows.
• Multi-threaded – Java has inbuilt multithreading capabilities, which means that you can develop highly interactive and responsive apps with multiple concurrent threads of activity using Java.
• Object-oriented – Java is a purely object-oriented language. Inspired by C and C++, Java extends the functionality of these languages to become a pure object-oriented programming language. Abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism are some of its core OOP features. 
• Secure – When it comes to safety, Java incorporates a host of safety features into the runtime systems, including runtime checking and static type-checking at the time of compilation. With these features in place, it is pretty challenging to hack into a Java application from an external source.
• Robust – Java leverages a simple memory management model reinforced by automatic garbage collection. Since Java objects do not require external references, Java code is robust. Besides, it also encourages developers to adopt productive programming habits for developing secure and reliable applications. The more you experiment with different java projects, the more knowledge you gain.

6. Email client software

So, why not use your skills to develop an impressive java project based on an email system? This project is an email program designed for sending and receiving electronic mail. In the project, you will use the standard sockets and networking along with Java Mail API. The project is developed through Java APIs. The project will need standard sockets and other networking in addition to the Java mail APIs. There are two main protocols used in the project – SMTP and POP3. This is one of the java projects for beginners. 

Usually, conventional email client software conducts electronic mailing through web browsers like Hotmail, Yahoo, Google, etc. Since these systems use HTTP port 80 to access all the emails, it is not precisely the best means to send sensitive or confidential messages. Hackers can easily hack into the software system and violate or misuse the data.

The project functions something like this – the ISP’s (Internet Service Provider) mail server handles the emails sent from an ISP. All the sent emails first come to the mail server, after which they are processed and forwarded to the collector’s destination where another mail server is located.

The mail server on the collector side receives the incoming emails and sorts them electronically in the inbox. Now, the recipient can use their email application to view the received emails. The entire transaction occurs by directly connecting to the mail server through the program, which makes it much safer than the existing email client software.

13. RSS feed reader

The goal of the RSS feed reader project is to minimize the delay between the publication of new content on the web and its appearance on the reader/aggregator. It allows the retrieval of the latest content posted on a website quickly on the aggregator, thus, making the content readily accessible to the users for reading. The RSS feed reader management system is equipped with improved content monitoring policies for all RSS feeds. 

The existing aggregator management applications use the homogeneous Poisson model that relies on a specific data source (either a webpage or RSS feed). As a result, these applications cannot adapt if the data source changes. They do not even have well-designed monitoring policies. This project incorporates and implements new content monitoring strategies to overcome the drawbacks of the existing aggregator management applications. The new RSS feed reader leverages a non-homogeneous Poisson model and delays matrices.

This RSS feed reader management system investigates the techniques used by RSS aggregation services to monitor web content and to retrieve the data promptly using minimal resources, to enable readers to access the content without delay. The project focuses mainly on the server-based aggregation scenario.

The proposed model has the following functional requirements:

• It should be able to provide information from disparate data sources to all users.
• The system should be able to run efficiently using minimal system resources.
• The time delay must be minimized so that users can view the data quickly on their feed.
• The aggregated content should be converted into a document format compatible with browsers.
• The RSS content must be monitored at frequent intervals.

16. Supply chain management system

This is one of the interesting Java projects. Supply chain management refers to the management of businesses interconnected over a network. It includes a whole range of management procedures like handling, storage, and movement of raw materials, inventory, and transporting finished goods from the source to its final destination.

This project aims to smoothen the supply chain management process by closely monitoring the dealers and clients and continually tracking the products through the different points in the supply chain. Using this application, a company can directly communicate with its clients, obtain the product requirements, manufacture the product to fit those requirements, and finally ship it off to the client. 

This project uses JSP, JDBC, and HTML for the front-end and MS Access as the back-end database. It is a web-based application that will automate the system of communication between the management or admin, dealers, and clients of the company. There are three modules in this application:

• Admin module – The Admin uses this module to check information on the manufactured products, newly launched products, and products that must be delivered to the clients.
•  Dealer module – This module keeps track of all the essential information concerning the dealers, particularly the record of items. Dealers can generate and update the item list for a product using this module. 
• Client module – The client uses this module to provide the necessary specifications of a product. The client feedback is processed through this module and forwarded to the Admin. 

By using this application, the clients can directly convey their product requirements to the manufacturer, who then contacts multiple vendors to acquire the necessary resources for making the product. The dealers usually create a list of items as per the product information provided to them, after which the manufacturer selects the materials that best fit the specifications given by the client.

Then, the selected list of items is forwarded to the inventory department for processing, after which the manufacturing begins. Once the production is complete, the accounts department calculates the raw materials costs and manufacturing costs to generate the total bill. Finally, the product, along with the invoice, is shipped to the client. The client is free to offer feedback on the received product.

17. Virtual private network

VPN is one of the trending java projects. The goal of building this virtual private network (VPN) is to extend a private network across a public domain (for example, the Internet). A VPN is created by setting up a point-to-point virtual connection via traffic encryption, dedicated connections, or virtual tunneling protocols.

There are three interconnected modules in this VPN project: 

• Administration module – This module monitors all the office operations and manages the staff details. 
• Marketing module – This module handles everything related to the marketing operations of the software application.
• Training module – This module manages all the technical operations like software testing, networking, call center, and J2EE training.

Confidentiality, authentication, and data integrity are the three core elements of this VPN security model. The other pivotal features of this application are:

• It allows for the addition of new clients, a feature better known as “scalability.” This feature allows a company/organization to accommodate new clients in the network as it expands. 
• It uses a remote backup server to prevent the system from failing due to sudden crashes. Since a VPN handles a large volume of files that are created every day, it is crucial to have a remote backup server to process all the requests coming from the client to the server and vice-versa.
• It uses a remote monitoring system to keep track of the activities of every client or individual connected to the VPN. This ensures that the privacy and security of the network remain intact.
• As is true of all VPNs, this VPN application, too, has the provision for certification in the system. When two or more LAN (Local Area Network) systems interact, certification is mandatory to protect the system’s security. 
• It triggers and sends acknowledgment signals to notify clients of successful data transfer (whether or not the data has successfully reached the desired destination).
