Written in Go.\n\nThe goal is to provide unified pain-free experience of **installing** (and **switching** between different versions of) JDK regardless of\nthe OS (macOS, Linux x86/x86_64/ARMv7+, Windows x86_64). \n\nThis is a community fork of the [original project](https://github.com/shyiko/jabba) and is currently a work in progress. There may be some out of date instructions in the README, please bear with us while we get things going.\n\n`jabba install`\n\nThe JDK index is powered by [DiscoAPI](https://github.com/foojayio/discoapi) as such some of the JDK\u0027s may be named slightly differently from the old index\nThe index will give you the list of jdks for your OS and architecture \n\n- [Oracle JDK](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/archive-139210.html) (latest-version only)\n- [Oracle Server JRE](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/server-jre8-downloads-2133154.html) (latest-version only), \n- [Adopt OpenJDK](https://adoptopenjdk.net/) \u003csup\u003e(jabba \u003e=0.8.0 is required)\u003c/sup\u003e \n - Hotspot \n - [Eclipse OpenJ9](https://www.eclipse.org/openj9/oj9_faq.html)\n- [Zulu OpenJDK](http://zulu.org/) \u003csup\u003e(jabba \u003e=0.3.0 is required)\u003c/sup\u003e\n- [IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition](https://developer.ibm.com/javasdk/) \u003csup\u003e(jabba \u003e=0.6.0 is required)\u003c/sup\u003e \n- [GraalVM CE](https://www.graalvm.org/)\n- [OpenJDK](http://openjdk.java.net/)\n- [OpenJDK Reference Implementation](http://openjdk.java.net/)\n- [OpenJDK with Shenandoah GC](https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/shenandoah/Main) \u003csup\u003e(jabba \u003e=0.10.0 is required)\n- [Liberica JDK](https://bell-sw.com/)\n- [Amazon Corretto](https://aws.amazon.com/corretto/)\n\u003c/sup\u003e\n\n... and from custom URLs.\n\n## Install-less\n\nSee [jabba-wrap",
