    So i'm learning Java right now in a way. I've been learning from this site here

    http://www.codecademy.com/

    It seems to go pretty well so far. This happens not to be the question though.

    I'm learning Java so I can make plugins and I need a plugin thats simple that I can look off of as I go on my own plugin. Just kinda as a reference if theres a error for me to see if I typed something in wrong.

    Any ideas for a simple plugin and the owner who might be willing to?

    Or even any help with this I've thought of taking lessons but no one seems to do that ,Lolz.

    I meant, a plugin to walk with like, training wheels. I don't know to much java except basics. So to have a plugins code there with me so I can double check my code helps.

    It is beginner level and the only way it will be complicated is if you don't know any java. If you don't know java, then it will be a foreign language.

    Coding is just like learning a new language ;)

    As a more advanced thing, see if you can pick up using maven and git as soon as you can.

    It's more to learn, but it's so wonderful once you know it. I only regret not learning it earlier when I started.

    Git is really useful to know how to use.

    However, I haven't used maven before, what exactly does it do? I feel like I should start using it...

    It does many things, many more than I know. But for the purposes of a Bukkit plugin, the best things it can provide for you are automatic dependency updating (keeping the Bukkit API up to date on your machine without having to move files around yourself) and the ability to have it automatically built with the assistance of a Jenkins server and a git repository.

    I know this isn't exactly what you were looking for, but I think that these videos made by Dinnerbone would be helpful to you. Some details in the video are outdated, but they show you what a Bukkit plugin looks like, which could be very useful for a beginner.
