Oracle Java Standard Edition Development Kit

brew install --cask oracle-jdk v26.0.1

Oracle's Java Development Kit for compiling and running Java applications.

Why you might care

Use this if you need the official Oracle JDK for Java development or if your project requires Oracle's proprietary implementation. However, most developers now prefer free alternatives like Eclipse Temurin or OpenJDK, which are equally compatible and don't require an Oracle account.
