What JDK should I use for netbeans?
Question
In Netbeans 8.2, it says to use Java JDK 8.1 or higher. When I use the latest version of JDK, Netbeans will load up but I can't open or make new projects. When I get 8.1 I can't use certain features of languages, like timers in Java.
What JDK should I use to have both Netbeans functioning and have all features of Java usable?

This document describes how to install NetBeans IDE 8.2 on your system. Please see the NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Notes for information about supported operating systems and hardware configurations for the IDE. To learn about the new features included in this release of the IDE see the NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Information page.
And use 8u191 or 8u192 for Netbeans 8.2

Somewhat specific to Ubuntu, or at least Linux: install Java with SDKman which is somewhat like RVM but for Java. Quite simple to install, it will then manage your JDK versions.
Additionally, umake , or ubuntu-make , will install your IDE or other developer tools. This utility is best installed through the snap package manager to get the latest version.
From umake it's a simple command to then install developer tools such as NetBeans . Currently this installs NB 8.2 which will not run on any JDK nine or higher.
Use SDKman to manage your JDK version (and gradle , and kotlin , and ...). Use umake to handle your IDE version.
My two cents
In the next week or so, umake should upgrade to NetBeans o. There was a bit of a mixup when Apache took over but the umake maintainers are on the ball. Or, just download NB 9 directly. You'll have to use an older JDK, as specified in the first answer by user5377037.
Why are you running NB 8.x?
