Details

JRE 21 is the Java Runtime Environment derived from the JDK 21 Long-Term Support (LTS) release, and it’s intended for end-users or servers that only need to run pre-compiled Java applications. It contains the core components, primarily the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and core class libraries, but omits development tools like the compiler (javac). Any application running on JRE 21 gains the benefits of the JDK 21 platform, including the performance improvements from the finalization of Virtual Threads and other new language features.
