MacOS has OpenJDK installed by default however I prefer to use Oracle’s version of JDK because its the official version. I don’t want to install it the same way Oracle instructs it on their docs as I find it very tedious. I’m a guy who loves automating stuff so I prefer to install it via Homebrew. I frequently do a clean install on my Mac every time there is a new version of OSX so I have to install JDK again and again. I’d rather just run a single installation script instead of heading over to Oracle’s website and following their instructions.

I recently decided to change the domain name of my personal website from emmanuelcorrales.com to emcorrales.com because it is shorter and easier to remember. I don’t want visitors of emmanuelcorrales.com to receive a 404 Not Found or any other error so I redirected all the traffic to emcorrales.com. In this article I’ll be sharing the steps I took to accomplish this.
