JDK (Java Development Kit)
What is JDK?
The JDK is a toolkit that helps you write and develop Java programs.

What’s inside the JDK?


The JDK includes everything you need to write, test, and run Java programs:
•A compiler (turns your code into something the computer can understand).
•Tools for debugging (finding errors in your code).
•The JRE (Java Runtime Environment)

JRE (Java Runtime Environment)
What is JRE?
The JRE is like the engine that makes your Java program run. It provides
everything needed to run Java applications on a computer, but it doesn’t
let you create or develop programs.

What’s inside the JRE?

The JVM (Java Virtual Machine) — this is the part that actually executes or runs your
Java program on your computer.

IDE (Integrated Development
Environment)
