What is JShell ? | Practical explanation of JShell | Java 9 feature JShell | JShell | REPL

JShell provides a way to interactively evaluate declarations, statements, and expressions of the Java programming language, making it easier to learn the language, explore unfamiliar code and APIs, and prototype complex code. Java statements, variable definitions, method definitions, class definitions, import statements, and expressions are accepted. The bits of code entered are called snippets.

As snippets are entered, they’re evaluated, and feedback is provided. Feedback varies from the results and explanations of actions to nothing, depending on the snippet entered and the feedback mode chosen. Errors are described regardless of the feedback mode. Start with the verbose mode to get the most feedback while learning the tool.

Command-line options are available for configuring the initial environment when JShell is started. Within JShell, commands are available for modifying the environment as needed.

Existing snippets can be loaded from a file to initialize a JShell session, or at any time within a session. Snippets can be modified within the session to try out different variations and make corrections. To keep snippets for later use, save them to a file.
