This BMI Calculator is a simple Java application that allows users to calculate their Body Mass Index (BMI). It's a straightforward program developed as part of the introductory exercises for the Full Stack Bootcamp at Factoría F5. The application takes user input for weight and height, calculates the BMI, and provides a result based on predefined BMI ranges.
The BMI Calculator is built using:
- Java: The programming language used for the application logic.
- Maven: Dependency management and build automation tool.
To run the BMI Calculator on your local machine, make sure you have Java and Maven installed. If you're using Visual Studio Code, Java might be installed using the Visual Studio Code Java Extension Pack. Additionally, Maven can be installed separately or as part of your Java development environment.
Here's a brief guide for Visual Studio Code:
-
Install Java Extension Pack:
- Open Visual Studio Code.
- Go to Extensions (you can use
Ctrl+Shift+X). - Search for "Extension Pack for Java" and install it.
-
Install Maven:
- Maven is often included in Java Development Kits (JDK). Ensure you have a JDK installed.
- If not, you can install Maven separately by following the instructions on the official Apache Maven website.
- Clone or download the BMI Calculator repository to your local machine.
- Open the project in Visual Studio Code.
- Run the
ImcApp.javafile. - Follow the on-screen prompts to input your weight and height.
