## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 32/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 0, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 3775, "days_push": 1344, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
The official GitHub repository hosting example code for the 500+ tutorial projects published on JournalDev (now part of DigitalOcean). It contains sample applications in Java, Spring Boot, Spring MVC, Hibernate, Android, and Python that accompany step-by-step tutorials.

## Use cases
- find example code for a spring boot tutorial
- learn hibernate with sample projects
- get starter code for spring mvc applications
- study android app examples from tutorials
- reference working java project examples while learning
- contribute updated tutorial code via pull request

## When to choose
- you are following a JournalDev/DigitalOcean tutorial and want its companion code
- you want runnable Java, Spring, Hibernate, or Android example projects to learn from
- you want to browse many small, self-contained demo projects across Java ecosystem topics

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready library or framework to add as a dependency
- you need actively maintained code with current dependency versions
- you need a single cohesive application rather than a collection of unrelated samples

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools, web-framework, orm
- domain: tutorials, web-development, developer-tools, mobile-development
- platform: jvm, python, cross-platform
- tags: example-projects, spring-boot, spring-mvc, hibernate, tutorial-code, journaldev, android
