Thread: Java Beginner

I'm new to Java and I want to try a little project to boost my knowledge a little bit.
I need to build a small application to support an existing back-end system. The back-end system is a recommendation engine.
The front-end should be an application which does the interfacing with the back-end system. Via this application the end user should be able to give his preferences, get his recommendations and give feedback.

I have no idea how to start.

I can just say Good Luck. You were not so descriptive. Sorry.

This is all the info given to me..

And you didn't bother to extract anymore? You must ask the person who gave you this description, to elaborate it more.

I drew this UML diagram for the info given.
I sent this to the person who gave me the assignment.
She told me to go deeper in these user cases.
Apperantly it's to set preferences to get recommendations for which movie/series you want to see

Exactly, it's a little clear for now.

She is true, you must break these two cases into sub cases to elaborate it further. Like,
1. Set Preferences.
i. By Categories
ii. By Year
iii. By Cast

etc

OK I can do that, but it's so unclear which UML Diagram to use because there are so many and it doesn't seem right with the Use Case Diagram I made earlier

Well, if it's me i will use Use Case and Architecture Diagram in this case.

So, you must focus on Architecture Diagram for now.

Hmmm never heared off that one, but I'll try

Really???
Check THIS!!!!

lol thanks for the "help"
