I am looking to make a Java based application that also uses an external MySQL database. Does anyone know of some good resources that I could read up on? I am very interested to give this a shot!
Thanks in advance!

The standard API to use databases from Java is JDBC. See the JDBC Tutorial to learn how to use it.
You’ll need a JDBC driver to connect to MySQL. You can get that at the MySQL website: Connector/J download.
