Java SE, also known as Java Standard Edition, forms the foundation of Java programming. It includes the core libraries and APIs necessary for developing general-purpose applications and is widely used for desktop and server-side programming.
Java SE offers features like simplified memory management, exception handling, and support for multithreading. It provides developers with a rich set of tools and frameworks to create robust applications that can run on different platforms.
Examples of Java SE applications include software for banking systems, e-commerce websites, and enterprise applications.
III. Enterprise Edition (Java EE)
Java EE, or Java Enterprise Edition, builds upon Java SE and provides additional APIs and tools for developing enterprise-level applications. It is designed to handle complex, distributed, and scalable systems.
