To develop Java driver applications for YugabyteDB, you need the following:

Java Development Kit (JDK)

Install JDK 8 or later. {{% jdk-setup %}}
Create a Java project

You can create Java projects using Maven or Gradle software project management tools. For ease-of-use, use an integrated development environment (IDE) such as IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse IDE to configure Maven or Gradle to build and run your project.

If you are not using an IDE, see Building Maven or Creating New Gradle Projects for more information on how to set up a Java project.
1. Create a project called "DriverDemo".
  sh
```
$ mvn archetype:generate \
     -DgroupId=com.yugabyte \
     -DartifactId=DriverDemo \
     -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart \
     -DinteractiveMode=false

$ cd DriverDemo
```
2. Open the pom.xml file in a text editor and add the following below the <url> element.
  xml
```
<properties>
  <maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
  <maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>
</properties>
```
  If you're using Java 11, it should be:
  xml
```
 <properties>
   <maven.compiler.source>11</maven.compiler.source>
   <maven.compiler.target>11</maven.compiler.target>
 </properties>
```
YugabyteDB cluster
- Create a free cluster on YugabyteDB Aeon. Refer to Use a cloud cluster. Note that YugabyteDB Aeon requires SSL.
- Alternatively, set up a standalone YugabyteDB cluster by following the steps in Install YugabyteDB.
