About
Microsoft Build of OpenJDK is Microsoft’s distribution of OpenJDK. This Homebrew cask is specifically the OpenJDK 25 variant and installs it using a macOS package installer.
- Provides a Java Development Kit (JDK) distribution; it is not an application or a separate runtime-only package.
- The cask supports Apple silicon and Intel Mac variants in its package definition.
- Homebrew installs the downloaded
.pkgpackage.
Install with:
brew install --cask microsoft-openjdk@25
The cask requires macOS. Choose and configure this JDK in your development tools or environment when you want to use it for Java development; installing it does not itself install a Java editor or IDE.
