  • can explain your question in details? because you can't develop java programs only with JRE You will need JDK for compiling your programs.JRE provides only runtime environment,but JDK is something you will need to compile your code to make them executable by your JRE.You will need javac for compiling your code which is present in JDK.

  • @CodeF0x I know, that brew cask install java installs the JDK and on Ubuntu it's sudo apt install default-jre (This does install JDK, doesn't it? Although it's named default-jre). What I tried is searching the internet for JRE and brew

    If you want to install Java 11, then there is no separate JRE anymore. See stackoverflow.com/questions/52584888/…
