Good time of the day.
I'm new here.
Trying to do initial config of development environment on Ubuntu. I'm heading towards the beginner developer path. I didn't see the 100% recommendation for the java version for Linux - OpenJDK or Oracle?
Would appreciate the opinion of the experienced developers .
Thank you for your time !

I decided to go with Open JDK base on the project "Get Started with Salesforce Development" and module "Get Ready to Develop". This module has a note:
"Note
Some features, particularly Apex support, in Salesforce Extensions for Visual Studio Code depend on the Java Platform, Standard Edition Development Kit (JDK). Once you install the correct JDK, use the following link to configure your setup: Salesforce Extensions: Java Setup."
When this link Java Setup opened - we can see the info:
"
Linux
Pop! OS 20.04 (installation via aptitude):
{
"salesforcedx-vscode-apex.java.home": "/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64"
}
"
"java-17-openjdk-amd64" tells that the JDK should be Open JDK for Ubuntu.
I don't have a questions now, maybe in the future.
Thanks
