# Downloading Apache NetBeans 31

**[Awesome Java Newsletter](https://daily.dev/sources/java_libhunt)** · 1 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Apache NetBeans 31 was released on August 10, 2026, with downloads available as platform-independent binaries, source archives, and third-party installers/packages built with NBPackage that bundle a local Temurin JDK. The IDE supports running on JDK 26, 25, or 21, with initial support for JDK 27, though the runtime JDK does not restrict which JDK versions projects themselves can target. Instructions are provided for building from source and details on the community voting process that approved the release.

## Questions this post answers

### Which JDK versions does Apache NetBeans 31 support running on?

Apache NetBeans 31 supports running on JDK 26, 25, or 21, with initial support for JDK 27. The runtime JDK used by NetBeans itself does not restrict which JDK versions a developer's own projects can target. Using the latest JDK update release is recommended for the best experience.

_Developers planning a NetBeans 31 upgrade can track JDK compatibility notes like this on daily.dev._

### How do I get a self-contained NetBeans installer that includes a bundled JDK?

Codelerity packages provide Windows, macOS, and Linux (.deb/.rpm) installers for Apache NetBeans built with NBPackage, and they include a local Temurin JDK so the IDE runs out of the box without needing a separate JDK installation. These installers are community-provided conveniences, not official Apache Software Foundation releases.

_Anyone choosing an IDE installer approach can compare packaging options like this on daily.dev._
