 Like the 2.12.x series, the Scala 2.13.x series will support Java 8 and higher. (We may bump this to Java 11, but this is unlikely to happen in the 2.x series.)

+Although the table above jumps from 8 to 11, JDK 9 and 10 will probably also work wherever 11 does. But unlike 9 and 10, 11 is an LTS release, so 11 is what we actually test on and recommend.
 
-As of Scala 2.12.6 and 2.11.12, **JDK 9+ support is incomplete**. Notably, `scalac` will not enforce the restrictions of the Java Platform Module System, which means that code that typechecks may incur linkage errors at runtime. Scala 2.13.x will provide [rudimentary support](https://github.com/scala/scala/pull/7218) for this, but likely only in nightlies built on Java 11.
