 # Installing Java

+In addition to the Exercism CLI and your favorite text editor,
+practicing with Exercism exercises in Java requires the **Java Development Kit** (JDK).
+The JDK includes both a Java Runtime _and_ development tools (most notably, the Java compiler).
 
-- the **Java Development Kit** (JDK) — which includes both a Java Runtime _and_ development tools (most notably, the Java compiler); and
-- **Gradle** — a build tool specifically for Java projects.
+There are many flavors of the JDK nowadays, some of which are open-source.
+Here at Exercism we recommend using [Eclipse Temurin by Adoptium][adoptium].
 
-Choose your operating system:
+## Supported Java versions
 
-- [Windows](#windows)
-- [macOS](#macos)
-- [Linux](#linux)
+Exercism's Java track supports Java 21 LTS and earlier.
 
-... or ...
+## Installing Eclipse Temurin
 
-- if you prefer to not use a package manager, you can [install manually](#install-manually).
+To install Eclipse Temurin on your system, head on over to their excellent [installation instructions][adoptium-installation-guide].
+Here you will find instructions on how to install the JDK using your favorite package manager,
+and it also contains links to downloadable installers for all major operating systems.
 
-Optionally, you can also use a [Java IDE](#java-ides).
-
-## Windows
-
-Open an administrative command prompt. (If you need assistance opening an administrative prompt, see [open an elevated prompt in Windows 8+](http://www.howtogeek.com/194041/how-to-open-the-command-prompt-as-administrator-in-windows-8.1/) (or [Windows 7](http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/run-a-command-as-administrator-from-the-windows-vista-run-box/))).
-
-1. If you have not installed Chocolatey, do so now:
-
-   ```batchfile
-   C:\Windows\system32> @powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin
-   ```
-
-2. Install the JDK:
-
-   ```batchfile
-   C:\Windows\system32> choco install temurin21
-   ...
-   C:\Windows\system32> refreshenv
-   ...
-   ```
-
-3. Install Gradle:
-
-   ```batchfile
-   C:\Windows\system32>choco install gradle
-   ...
-   ```
-
-We recommend closing the administrative command prompt and opening a new command prompt.
-You do not require administrator privileges to practice Exercism exercises.
-
-You now are ready to get started with the Java track of Exercism!
-
-To get started, see "[Running the Tests](https://exercism.org/docs/tracks/java/tests)".
-
-## macOS
-
-Below are instructions for install using the most common method - using Homebrew.
-If you'd rather, you can also [install on macOS without Homebrew](#installing-on-macos-without-homebrew).
-
-## Installing
-
-1. If you haven't installed [Homebrew](http://brew.sh), yet, do so now:
-
-   ```sh
-   /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
-   ```
-
-2. Tap the [Homebrew Cask](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask-versions) — this allows us to install a specific JDK version.
-
-   ```sh
-   brew tap homebrew/cask-versions
-   ```
-
-3. Install the JDK:
-
-   ```sh
-   brew install --cask temurin21
-   ```
-
-4. Install Gradle:
-
-   ```sh
-   brew install gradle
-   ```

-### Other Linux distributions
-
-There are a lot of ways to install JDK 21, but one of the easiest ways is to use SDKMAN, which lets you install
-both OpenJDK 21 and the latest Gradle with ease.
-
-Use the following steps:
-
-1. Install SDKMAN:
-
-   ```sh
-   curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash
-   ```
-
-   (if that doesn't work, take a look at the [installation instructions](https://sdkman.io/install))
-
-2. Install OpenJDK 21:
-
-   ```sh
-   sdk install java 21.0.1-tem
-   ```
-
-3. Install Gradle:
-
-   ```sh
-   sdk install gradle
-   ```

-### Installing on Windows manually
-
-~~~~exercism/note
-These instructions are intended for experienced Windows users.
-If you don't already know how to set environment variables or feel comfortable managing the directory structure, we highly recommend you use the Chocolatey-based install, [above](#windows).
-~~~~
-
-1. Install the JDK:
-   - Download "**OpenJDK 21 (LTS)**" from [Adoptium](https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?os=windows&arch=x64&package=jdk&version=21) (choose **".msi"**).
-   - Run the installer, using all the defaults.
-2. Install Gradle:
-   - Download "**Binary only distribution**" from the [Gradle download page](https://gradle.org/gradle-download/).
-   - Unzip the archive. We recommend a place like `C:\Users\JohnDoe\Tools`.
-   - Add a new system environment variable named `GRADLE_HOME` and set it to the path you just created (e.g. `C:\Users\JohnDoe\Tools\gradle-x.y`).
-   - Update the system `Path` to include the `bin` directory from Gradle's home (e.g. `Path`=`...;%GRADLE_HOME%\bin`).
