Does add-deps (https://book.babashka.org/#_add_deps) require java or clojure to be installed?

That function uses deps.clj, which in turn looks for java:

user=> (deps/add-deps '{:deps {medley/medley {:mvn/version "1.3.0"}}})
java.lang.Exception: Couldn't find 'java'. Please set JAVA_HOME. [at <repl>:2:1]

However, if java is installed, deps.clj will download the clojure tools jar and so on, so I think I'm right in saying that the only pre-req is java (and of course, bb)

Can I make self-contained executable with bb or nbb ? (assume the host does not have bb installed)
