What JDK should I install for Plugin development on aarch64 Mac?
Answered
What is the recommended JDK to install for plugin development on aarch64 Macs? Should I be using version 11 to match the runtime included with Intellij or a later version? The aarch64 versions seem to be Azul Zulu and BellSoft Liberica. Which of those should I install or does it matter?

IntelliJ project migrated to Java 11 since the 2020.3 version – https://blog.jetbrains.com/platform/2020/09/intellij-project-migrates-to-java-11
If you're targetting 2020.3+, use Java 11; otherwise, stick to Java 8.
JDK distribution shouldn't matter at this point.
