Configuring my new laptop and wondering if the third bullet point in https://clojure.org/guides/install_clojure#java should have a hyperlink in there? I read "(see this option...)" and was expecting one.

that is surely missing something

Alex Miller (Clojure team)15:12:11

but I'm not even sure what the Custom Setup page is

Alex Miller (Clojure team)15:12:20

so maybe that whole clause should not be there

Ben Lieberman15:12:59

Yeah I was unsure myself so thought I'd raise a flag

Alex Miller (Clojure team)15:12:56

thx, I'm just going to remove that clause, may have been copied from something old or elsewhere

Alex Miller (Clojure team)15:12:22

was trying not to be too prescriptive here about PATH changes as there are a million ways you might do that

I believe you only need to set JAVA_HOME specifically if there are multiple versions installed via Homebrew Most Java install approaches do not require anything to be set https://practical.li/clojure/clojure-cli/install/java.html#homebrew

Or take a look at the https://adoptium.net/installation/ instructions for the specific OS used
