I’m starting to learn LWJGL Game Programming using TheCodingUniverse’s tutorials. Also, I will hold on to those forums because I find them really awesome! Wish me luck

Hello and welcome.
I’ve found a lot of good ideas in the Slick2D library which wraps lwjgl and gives you some really interesting functionality quite quickly.
It also gives you all the ground work for game loops and the update/render loop.
Give it a try.
