Hi Tojo,

Are you looking for the link to download IntelliJ or are you asking how to find the Java JDK for a project you are building in IntelliJ?

Tojo,

Go to File > Project Structure, Project (under Project Settings in the left hand pane of the pop up box) > select the Project SDK in the drop down box.

Also, make the Project Language Level (under the Project SDK section) match the Project SDK version. Meaning, if you choose 1.8 as your Projects SDK, then choose 8 as your Project Language Level.

I hope this helps!

Let me know if you need any more help!
