The Apex Language Server, shipped as part of the Salesforce Apex Extension for VS Code, depends on the Java Platform, Standard Edition Development Kit (JDK). It requires an installation of either JDK version 11 (Recommended) or JDK version 8. By default, the extension attempts to locate your local Java installation by looking for a `JAVA_HOME` or `JDK_HOME` environment variable on your computer. If the extension can't find your Java installation, or if you want it to use a different installation, change the `salesforcedx-vscode-apex.java.home` setting.
