+# Apache Beam Java SDK quickstart
+
+This quickstart shows you how to run an
+[example pipeline](https://github.com/apache/beam-starter-java) written with
+the [Apache Beam Java SDK](/documentation/sdks/java), using the
+[Direct Runner](/documentation/runners/direct/). The Direct Runner executes
+pipelines locally on your machine.
+
+If you're interested in contributing to the Apache Beam Java codebase, see the
+[Contribution Guide](/contribute).

+
+## Set up your development environment
+
+1. Download and install the
+  [Java Development Kit (JDK)](https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)

Review Comment:
   I copied this section from our existing quickstart. 
   
   Qs:
   
   - Is it better to be agnostic about how customers install the JDK and Gradle/Maven? My assumption was anyone using Java already has a preference. OTOH your approach gives customers definite steps to follow.
   - If we show sdkman, will we have to keep the version # up-to-date?
