• Understand the Model-View-Controller paradigm, the Observer and Command Design patterns that are at the heart of modern UI programming
• Understand exactly how the Model-View-Controller paradigm is used in Java, both in Swing and in JavaFX
• Implement event and menu handling using the Observer and Command design patterns
• Identify how the MVC paradigm manifests itself in different UI programming use-cases
• Gain a superficial understanding of JavaFX and Properties and Bindings

Requirements

• Basic knowledge of Java

Target audience

• Yep! Programmers who know some Java, but are new to User-Interface programming
• Yep! Programmers who are a bit short on time and would like a quick refresher of the design priniciples underlying modern UI programming in Java
• Nope! Folks that are entirely new to programming (we'd suggest our From 0 to 1: Java class for you instead)
• Nope! Folks that are looking to learn Design Patterns in depth (we'd recommend our From 0 to 1: Design Patterns course for you instead)
• Nope! Folks that are looking to learn Swing or JavaFX in detail (we'd recommend our From 0 to 1: JavaFX and Swing course for you instead)
