homebrew-openjdk VS jenv

The adoptopenjdk project has instructions: https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/homebrew-openjdk

Yes, in development mode, we use jenv: https://www.jenv.be/, that's how developers can switch between JDK.

FYI you can use jenv to handle multiple JDKs for command-line (ex maven). https://www.jenv.be

I personally use jenv, very handy : jenv

n is common Node.js version manager and jenv is the equivalent for java

You can't do better than jenv - it's the best tool for the job IMO: https://github.com/jenv/jenv

I personally recommend jenv to set your Java version for your local development directory only. It's lightweight and cross-platform, provided you're using bash/zsh or similar. (However: it tells you to echo some lines into ~/.bash_profile, but this is true only on Mac. For Linux/Windows, ~/.bashrc is a more appropriate location (or the zsh equivalent)).

I've found jenv easy to use: https://www.jenv.be/

Fish is amazing as long as you absolutely don't ever need any bash scripts changing environment variables in your shell. That's fortunately very rare.

Are you perhaps looking for something like jenv, sdkman, or maybe asdf
