Hi!
1. I was thinking about making my own desktop receipe application written in java. Would mongodb be a good choice for this? Would it be stupid to try to write an GUI to that application/mongodb?
2. As a very novice java coder, would you recommend the java developer course by mongodb along side with doing the course for DBAs? Currently working as a DBA and only doing java stuff as a hobby.
Sorry if my questions is bit of the techincal scope of this group :)

Your questions fit perfectly into the purpose
of this forum.
As a long-time Java EE developer with 3 years of MongoDB under his belt, I think your first idea is extremely doable and, in fact, I wouldn't choose to do it any other way (I'd write it as a web application using JSF or Wicket rather than a stand-alone for maximum effectiveness, sharability, etc.).
As for the developer course, I'd concentrate on them separately. You might do the Java one now and leave the DBA for later because a) you don't need the power of replica sets, sharding, etc. that you'll really learn in the DBA course while b) you'll learn more than enough during the Java course to manage the database (you don't have to wait for the DBA course to know what you're doing).
Cheers,
Russ Bateman
