What is GraalVM?

GraalVM is a high-performance, embeddable, polyglot virtual machine for running applications written in JavaScript, Python, Ruby, R, JVM-based languages like Java, Scala, Kotlin, and LLVM-based languages such as C and C++.

Here is the Official doc link

Hmm… Okay, I have to see it.

Let’s install

Below is the way I installed GraalVM Community Edition on Ubuntu 18.04. For other platform, the official doc installation guide is here.

# update this number to latest version from here: https://github.com/oracle/graal/releases
version=1.0.0-rc15
wget https://github.com/oracle/graal/releases/download/vm-${version}/graalvm-ce-${version}-linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar -xvzf graalvm-ce-${version}-linux-amd64.tar.gz
# clean up
rm graalvm-ce-${version}-linux-amd64.tar.gz
# to wherever you want. 
mv graalvm-ce-1.0.0-rc15/ ~/bin/graalvm
# if you want to make it permanent, put this in your bashrc 
export PATH=$HOME/graalvm/bin:$PATH

Now that your graalvm/bin in your path, you’ll get the GraalVM versions of those runtimes.
