Top level repository of the Open JDK
65 projets available:
- amber, valhalla, loom, panama
- graal
- duke

#Devoxx @JosePaumard
Are you really building a JDK?
In fact no…
There is this TCK = Test Compatibility Kit
You need a licence to run it
LondonJug (LJC): Adopt OpenJDK
https://adoptopenjdk.net/
12 plateforms, 6 versions, 2 JVM

Wrapping up
A little tricky…
A little long!
Needs to make your hand dirty to test new functionalities
You will be fighting against your IDE, and you will loose!
But you can follow what is going on in real-time ☺
