[Question] Are there any (simple) open source java projects I can study to better my understanding of real world code? (lemm.ee)

I teach a course in java and springboot for beginners. I would like to walk my students through the code of a real world java or springboot application. Can anyone recommend a good example?

Yes, loads; but without knowing what kinda stuff you want to learn to do, I wouldn't recommend anything in particular

Edit: might as well give some ideas though... Some libraries such as http frameworks will have some examples projects that use it, sometimes even in the core repo under ./examples or something. There are lots of small personal projects from random GitHub users that you can stumble across. Many useful and well written libraries are small enough to be approachable. But which of those to recommend depends on what you want to do with your code.

Good point, I've edited the post

Ah cool. Well I guess I'd better back myself then. I'll take a look at a few and tell you what I like...
