Download and install Java: JDK, JRE, and Eclipse

In this tutorial, we'll look at how to get started with Java. This course is dedicated only to learning how to download and install Eclipse Java. The steps are explained in the video at the end of the tutorial.

The steps to follow:
Before going directly to Eclipse, you need to make sure that JRE and JDK are installed on your computer because it's with JRE that we run programs outside of Eclipse and with JDK that we compile our codes. For developers, the JDK integrates the JRE so it is not necessary to download the JRE.

-  Download JDK 32-bit for 32-bit machines and 64-bit for 64-bit machines.

    32-bit, 64-bit JDK for windows, linux, and mac os
    You can see in the image that there are several download links. You choose the one that suits you according to two criteria: the operating system (Windows, Linux, Mac OS and Solaris) and the second is the architecture of the operating system or the machine (32-bit or 64-bit).

    -  Download Java Runtime Enviroment JRE  32-bit for 32-bit machines and 64-bit for 64-bit machines.
