A concise walkthrough for building OpenJDK 24 from source on macOS 14.7.1. Covers required prerequisites including a boot JDK via SDKMan, XCode (with a workaround for a broken clang in XCode 16.1), and autoconf via Homebrew. The actual build process involves cloning the OpenJDK repo, running configure, and running make images. Also mentions Aleksey Shipilëv's pre-built OpenJDK binaries as an alternative for Linux users.
