I’ve just started at the very beginning, learning java, and when he started a new project, he could see a package name. When I start one, I don’t see anything like that anywhere, and I can’t get started with the first coding lesson without it. Can someone please help me figure this out? Complete beginner here…. thank you in advance!

If it is Java and Intellij, try these steps.  
IntelliJ usually:

- Shows packages automatically

- Hides folder structure unless “Packages” view is enabled

If **you don’t see packages** , you may be in:

- **Project view** instead of **Packages view**

#### Fix in IntelliJ:

1. Open the left sidebar

2. At the top dropdown, select **Packages** instead of **Project**

3. Also enable:
