- All chapters are enumerated with number. Start with chapter 1.
- Every chapter contains read me documentation at the beginning of the file that describes what is the chapter and important links to reference guide that you should read before starting the chapter.
- Every exercise has written implementation requirements and
todomarkers that will point you where to start. - ⭐ the repo once you completed all the exercises

Sometimes it gets hard to get started and just a nudge might help.
While in exercises folder, execute mvn hint:{name_of_exercise} and it will offer help how to solve exercise without giving out full solution.
