Java
JRE is an implementation of the Java Virtual Machine which executes Java programs. JDK is a bundle of software that you can use to develop Java based applications. If you plan to write your own Java code get the JDK. If you just want to run Magnolia then JRE is sufficient.
Magnolia releases run on the active Java version at the time of the first release.

If you are using AdoptOpenJDK on macOS 10.15, be aware that this build of OpenJDK is currently facing a segmentation fault problem issued as https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk-build/issues/1315, which also affects our Periscope module. Until the issue is fixed in the AdoptOpenJDK project, you can bypass it by excluding the
magnolia-periscope-result-ranker
artifact from your instances, temporarily losing the functionality the result ranker provides.
If you want to build Magnolia yourself, you must use Java 8.
Enabling compilation with Java 9 and Java 10 is next:
