-To be able to call _ext-table-gen_, Java 17 or higher must be on the `PATH` (the `bin` directory of the Java installation), or alternatively, you need to set `JAVA_HOME` to point to the Java 17 installation directory (not its `bin` directory, but the directory which contains the `bin` directory).

 If you don't have Java installed, install it using your package manager, https://sdkman.io/[sdkman^] (Linux/macOS), or download it, for example from https://adoptium.net/[Eclipse Adoptium^].
