Java Programs source code

Hi guys,

I am trying to learn Java and thought a good way of learning would be looking at source codes of existing programs out there... Does anyone know if this is possible and where we can find them? Or is this something that one just doesn't do? Hehe

Search for derek banas's youtube channel. He does some interesting tutorials and all source code is available free on his website.

You could also check out some subreddits such as /daily programmer or /learn java. Lastly you could look at the official tutorial on the Oracle website which is often referenced throughout this track to see a few smaller snippets.

I am positive that there are countless other resources as well ..

Thanks for your answer. And by the way, I don't know how to use it yet, but I had a look at GitHub yesterday and there are a lot of codes there to look at. That was kinda cool to find out about.
