I have recently started working on creating a REST API for a client project. I was using Java 8 for my past developments. Since Java 11 was introduced in the last September (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_version_history) I thought of developing the REST API in Java 11. Java 11 is having major changes after Java 8. Java 11 is having a concept of modules (This was introduced after Java 9). Several libraries are acting as separate modules. Those are not included in JDK and those have to be imported separately. Ref : http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/261 (I have experienced this in JBoss7 also. They were using the module system and each service can specify which modules which are using. Those modules can be manually configured by the user.) One example is that you have to import the Java fx library separately (For GUI). Java-Fx is decoupled from JDK. <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.openjfx/javafx --> ...
