Great question, Naziya!
😊 Let's learn what a Java Bean class is in a very simple and clear way — with
example, features, and real-life analogy.
🫘 What is a Java Bean Class?
A Java Bean is just a simple Java class that follows some special rules.
It is mostly used to store and transfer data (like a box to carry data).
✅ Java Bean Rules
A Java Bean must:
1. Be a public class
2. Have a no-argument constructor
3. Have private variables (fields)
4. Have public getter and setter methods
📦 Real-Life Analogy
Imagine a "Student Form":
📝 Fields: Name, Age, ID
👩💻 You can write into the form → (setters)
👀 You can read from the form → (getters)
A Java Bean is like this form: it stores data safely and gives access through methods.
💡 Java Bean Example
java Copy Edit
public class Student { // 1. Private fields private String name; private int age; // 2.
No-arg constructor public Student() { } // 3. Getters public String getName() { return
name; } public int getAge() { return age; } // 4. Setters public void setName(String name)
{ [Link] = name; } public void setAge(int age) { [Link] = age; } }
🛠 How to Use the Bean
java Copy Edit
public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { Student s = new Student();
[Link]("Naziya"); [Link](22); [Link]([Link]()); // Naziya
[Link]([Link]()); // 22 } }
🤔 Why Use Java Beans?
✅ To transfer data in web apps (between layers)
✅ Used in Spring Boot for @RequestBody and @Entity
✅ Works well with tools, frameworks, and libraries

from Postman to database? I’d love to show you! 😊
