Java is well integrated into macOS. While the JRE or JDK is not part anymore of macOS itself like it was in the past and stopped with Java 6, interfaces, commands and standards to make it simple to use are still integrated by default and continued to be maintained.
The following Zulu documentation page explains how to select the default Java version to use in case you have multiple versions installed on your Mac. It uses the macOS standard way without any third party tools:

Current Macs are including ARM64 CPUs (aka M1, M2, M3, aarch64, arm64) and not Intel CPUs (x86_64). You can still run x86_64 applications on M1/M2 Macs, also Zulu for x86_64, but recommended is to use Zulu for arm64 to achieve highest performance. The technical terms aarch64 and arm64 are just different words for the same CPU architecture.
