Hello,

This new release of SonarLint for VSCode makes it simpler to get started for those who don’t have a JRE already set up in their system.  
In fact, we’ve decided to **embed the runtime** in SonarLint (currently a JRE 17) for those platforms:

- Windows x86-64
- Linux x86-64
- macOS x86-64 (Intel) and arm-64 (Apple Silicon)

If you are on one of those platforms, you don’t need to download a separate JRE and to reference it in the SonarLint configuration.

With this release, we’ve also [added Java rules](https://community.sonarsource.com/t/7-new-rules-to-help-java-developers-write-clean-cloud-applications-on-aws/67688) to help you develop **cloud-native applications for AWS** without falling into common pitfalls.

Among the other changes we’ve shipped:

- Support for TypeScript 4.7
- New [rules for JavaScript, TypeScript](https://community.sonarsource.com/t/new-rules-for-javascript-and-typescript-improvements-for-react-redux-sap-ui5-and-more/67240), and [for C++](https://community.sonarsource.com/t/improved-c-and-c-analysis-cache-and-2-new-rules/67420)

You can find more details in the [release notes](https://sonarsource.atlassian.net/browse/SLVSCODE-217?jql=project%20%3D%2010121%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%2012037%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC%2C%20key%20ASC).

Cheers,

Marco
