how to start java project in intellij

To start a new Java project in IntelliJ IDEA, follow these steps:

1. Open IntelliJ IDEA and click on "Create New Project" from the welcome screen.
2. In the "New Project" window, select "Java" from the left-hand panel.
3. Select the location for your project and click "Next".
4. Select the Java version for your project and click "Next".
5. Enter a name for your project and click "Finish".

IntelliJ IDEA will create a new project with the specified name and create a default package and class for your code.

You can then start writing your Java code in the editor window and use the various features of IntelliJ IDEA to manage and develop your project, such as code completion, debugging, testing, and version control.

To run your code, you can use the "Run" menu or the green "play" button in the toolbar to launch the application. IntelliJ IDEA will automatically build and run your code, and display the output in the "Run" window.

You can also use the "Project" window to manage the files and directories of your project, and the "Terminal" window to run command-line tools and scripts.

For more information on using IntelliJ IDEA for Java development, you can refer to the official documentation and tutorials on the JetBrains website.
