Can anyone help a beginner with JFreeChart?

Hi! Having recently graduated from a bootcamp, I am fairly new to programming. I'm even newer to Java which I am using for a portfolio piece to add to my resume. I was hoping to use JFreeChart to create a graph in my application that displays relevant data (truly, I would like it to be connected to a relational database and update in real time, but I'm not so sure yet if that's possible).

I have been combing though Stack Overflow and YouTube looking for tutorials that will help me get to an MVP of this project, but I have yet to find a JFreeChart tutorial that I've been able to fully grasp and understand. Does anyone out there have any suggestions or can help me get to where I need to be? I'm hoping to just create a basic line graph or scatter plot.

I am using JDK8 and IntelliJ on a Windows PC.
