A collection of simple, runnable Java demo programs that showcase common concurrency problems such as race conditions, deadlocks, and thread-safety issues. It is an educational resource where seeing the actual buggy behavior is more instructive than reading theory.

Use cases

• learn java concurrency pitfalls with runnable examples
• demonstrate race conditions to a team or class
• understand why thread-unsafe code fails in practice
• study deadlock and synchronization problems in java
• find real examples of multithreading gotchas for teaching

When to choose

• you are learning or teaching java multithreading and want observable failure demos
• you need concrete examples of concurrency bugs to justify careful concurrent design
• you want entry-level, minimal code samples of concurrency problems

When to avoid

• you need a concurrency utility library or framework for production code
• you want in-depth theoretical explanations - the demos intentionally omit discussion
• you work in a language other than java
