Prepare and explore
Install Java 21 and Maven, run the source sample, and inspect how the Person table and greeting process are assembled.
Run the source sampleA bounded QQQ learning project
Build one table and one process, then test the behavior you need. Treat a weekend as a learning exercise rather than a production readiness deadline.
Build a first workflow
Use the starter instructions to connect a development database and make a small metadata change you can verify.
Follow the first application guideAdd business behavior
Implement a Java backend step and test success, validation, and failure cases. Keep the workflow narrow enough to understand.
Read the process guidePlan the next iteration
Review identity, permissions, migrations, error recovery, deployment, and operations before using real data or serving users.
